- 0' KICK OFF: Almere City FC gets underway.
- 5' 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.
- 10' Loic Mbe Soh has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 24 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 12' Chris Lokesa is ready to make an impact after coming on for Denilho Cleonise at the 12 minute mark.
- 17' Daouda Weidmann is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Almere City FC tonight.
- 22' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 27' It looks like no one’s ball. RKC Waalwijk is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 32' Assisted by Sheral Floranus with the perfectly-timed delivery and Thomas Robinet makes no mistake. 1-0!
- 36' Aaron Meijers is having his name booked by the referee on 36.
- 41' The travelling RKC Waalwijk supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 46' Yoann Cathline has so much to prove this time. He replaces Damian van Bruggen on 46 minute.
- 51' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Almere City FC and RKC Waalwijk are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
- 52' Another substitution for RKC Waalwijk to replace Zakaria Bakkali by Filip Stevanovic on 52 minute.
- 55' Almere City FC make a change. Yann Kitala trudges off to be replaced by Kornelius Hansen on 55 minutes.
- 60' Almere City FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 65' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 70' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 74' Time for substitution for Almere City FC. Hamdi Akujobi is replaced by Manel Royo.
- 79' 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 Denilho Cleonise suffering a number of foals already.
- 84' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 85' Another change for Almere City FC made on 85 minute. Rajiv van La Parra leaves to be changed by Jochem Ritmeester van de Kamp.
- 87' Daouda Weidmann gets the nod from RKC Waalwijk. He replaces Godfried Roemeratoe and will look to change the dynamic.
- 90' It’s a booking for Almere City FC player. Loic Mbe Soh gets a Yellow card.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Almere City FC players.
