Match Events

  • 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Almere City FC and Heracles Almelo is underway.
  • 5' It’s high time Erwin van de Looi made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 10' Almere City FC is showing some good football. However, Almere City FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 15' Jochem Ritmeester van de Kamp has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 17' Hamdi Akujobi was booked on 17.
  • 22' A meaty challenge results in booking for Sem Scheperman on 22.
  • 27' Almere City FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 27.
  • 28' What a strike from Mats Rots! The score is 0-1.
  • 33' It looks like no one’s ball. Heracles Almelo is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 38' It looks surprising Heracles Almelo does not make any changes. Juho Talvitie has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 43' Heracles Almelo seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 45' Almere City FC receives a card for a hard tackle on 45.
  • 46' The Almere City FC manager makes a substitution. Junior Kadile departs to be replaced by Kornelius Hansen.
  • 51' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 51 minutes.
  • 55' Almere City FC receives a card for a hard tackle on 55.
  • 60' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Daniel van Kaam made 307 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 65' The supporters are chanting for Daniel van Kaam. He replaces Thomas Bruns on 65 minute.
  • 69' Another substitution for Almere City FC to replace Anas Tahiri by Baptiste Guillaume on 69 minute.
  • 71' Goal! Jizz Hornkamp scores his 26 goal in 369 matches.
  • 76' 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 Ricardo Visus suffering a number of foals already.
  • 80' The Almere City FC manager makes a substitution. Ricardo Visus departs to be replaced by Alex Carbonell.
  • 85' 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.
  • 89' The whistle greets Jizz Hornkamp as he departs to be replaced by Bryan Limbombe.
  • Full Time. Heracles Almelo beats Almere City FC
