Events

Match Events

  • 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Sporting du Pays de Charleroi and KRC Genk get this one started.
  • 2' Mark McKenzie adds to his 1 season tally! KRC Genk lead 0-1 — and this changes everything.
  • 3' The deadlock is broken! Isaac Mbenza gets on the scoresheet on 3 minutes.
  • 8' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 13' KRC Genk are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 18' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Damien Marcq made 205 appearances and scored 5 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 23' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 28' The travelling KRC Genk supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 31' A goal from the Tanzania international Mbwana Samatta! He fires home on 31 to make it 1-2!
  • 36' The home supporters are growing impatient. Sporting du Pays de Charleroi must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 39' Ken Nkuba is having his name booked by the referee on 39.
  • 44' Sporting du Pays de Charleroi seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 45' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Stefan Knezevic on 45 minutes.
  • 46' Mujaid Sadick picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 51' Ken Nkuba makes no mistake. The score reads 2-2 and Sporting du Pays de Charleroi are in front.
  • 56' It’s high time Wouter Vrancken made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 61' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Sporting du Pays de Charleroi side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 66' KRC Genk have won 545 goals from 327 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 67' The referee calls foul for Damien Marcq. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 68' Another change for KRC Genk made on 68 minute. Bilal El Khannous leaves to be changed by Aziz Mohammed.
  • 73' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Bryan Heynen suffering a number of foals already.
  • 75' Time for substitution for KRC Genk. Mbwana Samatta is replaced by Toluwalas Arokodare.
  • 77' Joris Kayembe makes way for Stelios Andreou at the 77 minute mark. A tactical switch from Sporting du Pays de Charleroi.
  • 82' Supporters expect more eagerness from Youssouph Badji, as he is very good at scoring at Stade du Pays de Charleroi with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
  • 85' A tactical swap from Sporting du Pays de Charleroi — Nikola Stulic on, Youssouph Badji off on 85 minutes.
  • 90' Daan Heymans gets the nod from Sporting du Pays de Charleroi. He replaces Damien Marcq and will look to change the dynamic.
