Crazy times.

Nice sunny day in Belgium

Not so much of a play off than a mini league now isn’t it? Play each other twice I believe

I've never watched this league before, thought I'd give it a go today to see what our loan players are like. The standard of football is really poor. Extremely fast paced but it's all just hit and hope hoof ball.
A cracking save from the Union keeper is the stand out moment from the first half so far.
What level of football is this the equivalent to? It's Belgium's top tier isn't it?

Yes it’s their top tier. I’ve seen a bit of football in Belgium and I’d compare it with mid/low level championship on the whole. Don’t get me wrong there can be standout teams that play the loan market well and do ok in Europe but it’s pretty basic

Very Harry kane by Undav at the end of that half. Bought the free kick by backing into the defender as the defender jumped, went down like a drama queen (or drama king if @Thunderbolt is reading ) and the defender got a yellow and misses the next game.

 

[Gabbafella]

I feel like Antwerp could maybe squeeze another sponsor or two on the back of their shirts. Took me a while to figure out that not all their players are called Heylen.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

cracking game

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

The ball is certainly a hot potato. Think the keeper is only allowed to hold the ball for 0.2 seconds

Love the ten yard graphics

While the players may not be world beaters, I’d be disappointed if this ref turned up to do my lads under 8’s game. Some absolutely bizarre decisions.

Union missing a series of good chances.

seems familiar

 

[Driver8]

Undav looks like he will fit in well at the Albion.

Undav twice in the last few minutes.

Sorry, I have not been keeping up. What does this 0-0 draw mean in terms of winning the title?

Bruges can get to within a point of USG with a win later.

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

USG will still be above Bruges tonight whatever happens but ideally would prefer them not to win. The key matches are the next two when they play each other home and away
