  • 10' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 15' The energy levels are beginning to show. Karim Belhocine might look to freshen things up shortly.

  • 22' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

  • 57' A quiet spell here at Stade du Pays de Charleroi. KRC Genk seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
