Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: KAA Gent gets underway.
- 5' KAA Gent is showing some good football. However, KAA Gent are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 9' Bent Soermo gets the nod from SV Zulte-Waregem. He replaces Alessandro Ciranni and will look to change the dynamic.
- 10' The SV Zulte-Waregem bench stirs into life. Alessandro Ciranni is withdrawn and Bent Soermo gets his opportunity.
