Live comments

  • 0' - KICK OFF: FC Groningen gets underway.
  • 4' - Jesper Karlsson puts AZ on the lead.
  • 5' - GOAL! Jesper Karlsson scores on 5.
  • 10' - 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 Vangelis Pavlidis suffering a number of foals already.
  • 15' - It’s high time Dennis van der Ree made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 20' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. FC Groningen needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 25' - Ricardo Pepi has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 30' - 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.
  • 35' - Florian Kruger needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 40' - It looks surprising AZ does not make any changes. Thom van Bergen has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 45' - AZ started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 45.
  • 50' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 55' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 57' - FC Groningen player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 62' - FC Groningen looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 63' - Luciano Valente is replacing Laros Duarte for the FC Groningen side.
  • 64' - AZ manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Sam Beukema is hanging Fedde de Jong on the field on 64 minute.
  • 65' - Djordje Mihailovic is replacing Jens Odgaard for the AZ side.
  • 70' - It looks like no one’s ball. FC Groningen is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 75' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 77' - Another substitution for FC Groningen to replace Jetro Willems by Damil Dankerlui on 77 minute.
