- 0' KICK OFF: RKC Waalwijk gets underway.
- 5' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 10' The Netherlands Nick Bakker breaks the deadlock on 10 minutes. 1-0!
- 15' Netherlands international Glenn Bijl has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 17' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Luka Adzic makes no mistake. 2-0!
- 22' The 26-year-old Thijs Oosting has been sensational this season — 2 goals and 2 assists is a remarkable return.
- 23' The FC Emmen bench stirs into life. Lucas Bernadou is withdrawn and Hilal Ben Moussa gets his opportunity.
- 28' 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 Vurnon Anita suffering a number of foals already.
- 30' Vurnon Anita has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 30.
- 32' Magnificent from Sergio Pena! That is 15 goals in 172 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 37' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 42' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Richard van der Venne.
- 43' Poor challenge from Hilal Ben Moussa. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 46' Ayman Azhil gets the nod from RKC Waalwijk. He replaces Richard van der Venne and will look to change the dynamic.
- 51' Both keepers have barely been tested. FC Emmen and RKC Waalwijk are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 56' FC Emmen started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 56.
- 61' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 62' A change in the RKC Waalwijk ranks — Thijs Oosting exits the field as Sylla Sow enters on 62.
- 67' FC Emmen is showing some good football. However, FC Emmen are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 72' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 73' The crowd applauds Vurnon Anita as he leaves the pitch. Sebbe Augustijns steps in for RKC Waalwijk.
- 78' Time for substitution for FC Emmen. Luka Adzic is replaced by Paul Gladon.
- 83' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 85' FC Emmen ring the changes. Jari Vlak has done his job and it is now time for Keziah Veendorp to step up.
- 90' It’s high time Fred Grim made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- Full Time. FC Emmen beats RKC Waalwijk
