Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Euroborg. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?

  • 22' Tijjani Noslin is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Fortuna Sittard tonight.
  • 27' FC Groningen have won 252 goals from 311 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 32' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 37' Fortuna Sittard 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.
  • 42' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both FC Groningen and Fortuna Sittard are fighting for every inch of the pitch.

  • 67' 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 Burak Yilmaz suffering a number of foals already.
