Deinze leaves no points in his own house against deserving Jong Genk | Challenger Pro League 2022/2023

Genk claimed the ball in the opening phase, thanks to the high pressure it tried to put on the home team’s defense.

In the first real counterattack it was immediately hit. Staelens spooned the ball behind the Genk defense, Van Landschoot took the cross and hit the ball against the net. Immediately turn to roses.

The Genk youngsters were not impressed by their first away game at the highest level. On the contrary, it went looking for the equalizer. Diawara missed the chance to make it 1-1 and Geusens’ free kick hit the post.

A little later the time had come: Godts controlled the goal past Ortola. Both teams had to settle for a draw at half time.

No change in the game after the break: Genk dominated and Deinze lurked on the counter. The goal did not come on counter, but on a stationary phase.

A free kick by Janssens got stuck in the suit, Quintero was on hand to score the 2-1. A setback for the Limburgers.

Moments later, there was silence in the stadium. The Genk defender El Taibi got stuck with his foot in the ground after a tackle and had to be removed by ambulance. The game was stopped for eight minutes.

The fact that Diawara was still able to head the equalizer against the nets shows mental strength. We seemed to be heading for a division of points, but Quintero decided otherwise.

With his second goal of the evening, he gave the home team the first three-pointer of the season.
