Match Events

  • 0' What a night it is going to be! Almere City FC welcome AZ for this crunch clash at Yanmar Stadion.
  • 5' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 10' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 15' Pena has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 20' It’s high time Maarten Martens made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 25' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Almere City FC that had 69 games and scored 62 goals.
  • 30' Lequincio Zeefuik has been relatively quiet despite scoring 5 goals in his last 102 appearances.
  • 35' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 40' AZ are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 43' Poor challenge from Joey Jacobs. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
  • 44' It’s a booking for Almere City FC player. Joey Jacobs gets a Yellow card.
  • 49' 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 Peer Koopmeiners suffering a number of foals already.
  • 54' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. AZ needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 59' It looks surprising AZ does not make any changes. Sheral Floranus has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 60' Jayden Addai is having his name booked by the referee on 60.
  • 63' Almere City FC make a change. Pena trudges off to be replaced by Rajiv van La Parra on 63 minutes.
  • 66' Fresh legs for AZ! Ernest Poku comes on to replace Ruben van Bommel.
  • 71' The home supporters are growing impatient. Almere City FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 74' Another substitution for AZ to replace Kristijan Belic by Lequincio Zeefuik on 74 minute.
  • 77' Almere City FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 82' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 84' Fresh legs for Almere City FC! Loic Mbe Soh comes on to replace Theo Barbet.
  • 89' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 90' Hamdi Akujobi gets the nod from Almere City FC. He replaces Joey Jacobs and will look to change the dynamic.
  • The final score is 0-0.
