0-2: Has the fate of KV Oostende been sealed?

The opening phase started with chances on every side. Schrijvers shot from afar, but posed no danger to goalkeeper Hubert. On the other side, the team from Ostend forced a corner, but that also did not result in a great chance. Immediately after that corner, Leuven switched very quickly. Al-Tamari scored the first chance between the posts. KVO tried to take over the initiative from OHL, but the Kustboys soon had to pay for it. Siebe Schrijvers aims the ball past Hubert from the half moon: 0-1. Ostend reacted almost immediately with attempts by Ndicka and Hornby, but afterwards the engine at KVO stopped. Just before halftime, Opoku doubled the lead for OHL. The American left goalkeeper Hubert no chance and acrobatically works into the 0-2.

Has KVO’s fate already been sealed or will it still straighten its back in the second half?
