Events
Match Events
- 0' ADO Den Haag have kicked off against AFC Ajax. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
- 5' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 10' Klaas-Jan Huntelaar adds to his 0 season tally! AFC Ajax lead 0-1 — and this changes everything.
- 15' 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 Lex Immers suffering a number of foals already.
- 20' AFC Ajax is showing some good football. However, AFC Ajax are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 25' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. AFC Ajax needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 30' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Sergino Dest made 483 appearances and scored 7 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 35' Poor challenge from Quincy Promes. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 37' That is a Yellow card for ADO Den Haag. Aaron Meijers will be fuming at that decision.
- 42' Dion Malone is a natural defender and has been asked to do a very specific job for AFC Ajax tonight.
- 43' Michiel Kramer catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 43.
- 48' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 53' The energy levels are beginning to show. Alfons Groenendijk might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 56' The referee has no hesitation. Nicolas Tagliafico is booked for AFC Ajax — Yellow card on 56.
- 61' With 0 assists to his name this season, Michiel Kramer is clearly more than just a goal scorer for ADO Den Haag.
- 62' A moment of madness from Danny Bakker on 62 minutes earns him a Yellow card. ADO Den Haag will be frustrated.
- 67' 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.
- 70' A tactical swap from ADO Den Haag — Thom Haye on, John Goossens off on 70 minutes.
- 75' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 78' Bilal Ould-Chikh has so much to prove this time. He replaces Danny Bakker on 78 minute.
- 80' Time for substitution for AFC Ajax. Quincy Promes is replaced by David Neres.
- 84' Tomas Necid gets the nod from ADO Den Haag. He replaces Milan van Ewijk and will look to change the dynamic.
- 86' Goal! David Neres scores his 48 goal in 483 matches.
- 89' Edson Alvarez gets the nod from AFC Ajax. He replaces Hakim Ziyech and will look to change the dynamic.
- With this win, AFC Ajax is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
