• Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds Stade Joseph Marien will turn into a battlefield for Royale Union Saint-Gilloise and K. Sint-Truidense VV.
  • 5' Royale Union Saint-Gilloise is showing some good football. However, Royale Union Saint-Gilloise are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 10' Visar Musliu has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 6 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 15' K. Sint-Truidense VV is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 20' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 25' 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 Kjell Scherpen suffering a number of foals already.
  • 30' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Anouar Ait El Hadj made 385 appearances and scored 14 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 35' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 40' Royale Union Saint-Gilloise started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 40.
  • 45' The travelling K. Sint-Truidense VV supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 50' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 55' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 60' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 62' Guilherme Carvalho puts Royale Union Saint-Gilloise on the lead.
  • 63' It’s gonna be a card for Robert-Jan Vanwesemael.
  • 68' Oumar Diouf has so much to prove this time. He replaces Ilias Sebaoui on 68 minute.
  • 69' A meaty challenge results in booking for Kevin Mac Allister on 69.

  • 72' Kevin Rodriguez is replacing Mateo Biondic for the Royale Union Saint-Gilloise side.
  • 77' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Royale Union Saint-Gilloise that had 226 games and scored 366 goals.
