Events
Match Events
- 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at Vodafone Park!
- 5' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Erik ten Hag will be considering his options from the bench.
- 10' The energy levels are beginning to show. Sergen Yalcin might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 15' Andre Onana has been relatively quiet despite scoring 2 goals in his last 490 appearances.
- 20' AFC Ajax 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.
- 22' Rachid Ghezzal puts Besiktas JK on the lead.
- 27' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 32' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 37' It looks like no one’s ball. Beşiktaş JK is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 42' A quiet spell here at Vodafone Park. Beşiktaş JK seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 46' Sebastien Haller has so much to prove this time. He replaces Mohammed Daramy on 46 minute.
- 51' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 51 minutes.
- 54' Brilliant from the forward! Sebastien Haller makes it 0-2 with a superb finish on 54.
- 59' Time for substitution for Besiktas JK. Alex Teixeira is replaced by Can Bozdogan.
- 64' 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 Perr Schuurs suffering a number of foals already.
- 67' Fresh legs for Besiktas JK! Michy Batshuayi comes on to replace Rachid Ghezzal.
- 69' Sebastien Haller makes no mistake. The score reads 0-3 and AFC Ajax are in front.
- 72' Another substitution for AFC Ajax to replace Noussair Mazraoui by Jurrien Timber on 72 minute.
- 77' Nicolas Tagliafico makes way for Daley Blind at the 77 minute mark. A tactical switch from AFC Ajax.
- 81' Fresh legs for Besiktas JK! Salih Ucan comes on to replace Miralem Pjanic.
- 83' Fresh legs for AFC Ajax! Kenneth Taylor comes on to replace Steven Berghuis.
- 85' The referee shows AFC Ajax player a Yellow card on 85.
- 88' Cyle Larin has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 88.
- Game over. The scoreline of 1-2 tells the full story of an entertaining encounter.
