Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Volkswagen Arena. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' KAA Gent started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 5.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Robin Knoche made 471 appearances and scored 19 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 15' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. VfL Wolfsburg needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 20' What a strike from Joao Victor! The score is 1-0.
- 25' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 25 minutes.
- 30' 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 Mikael Lustig suffering a number of foals already.
- 35' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering KAA Gent that had 299 games and scored 447 goals.
- 40' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 45' It’s a booking for VfL Wolfsburg player. Maximilian Arnold gets a Yellow card.
- 46' KAA Gent player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 50' GOAL! Roman Yaremchuk scores on 50.
- 55' It’s high time Jess Thorup made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 60' The travelling KAA Gent supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 65' Laurent Depoitre puts KAA Gent on the lead.
- 66' Another change for VfL Wolfsburg made on 66 minute. Josip Brekalo leaves to be changed by Yunus Malli.
- 70' The whistle greets Maximilian Arnold as he departs to be replaced by Lukas Nmecha.
- 75' VfL Wolfsburg player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 76' GOAL! Michael Ngadeu scores on 76. Assisted by Mikael Lustig
- 81' KAA Gent manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Alessio Castro-Montes is hanging Roman Yaremchuk on the field on 81 minute.
- 82' It is a substitution in VfL Wolfsburg team. Robin Knoche is replaced by Felix Klaus on 82 minute.
- 85' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Renato Steffen.
- 90' It is a substitution in KAA Gent team. Laurent Depoitre is replaced by Giorgi Kvilitaia on 90 minute.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for VfL Wolfsburg.
