  • 25' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Rogier Meijer will be considering his options from the bench.

  • 35' FC Groningen are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against NEC's shape.

  • 67' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
