Events
Match Events
- 0' The ball is rolling at Euroborg. FC Groningen are looking to make home advantage count against PSV.
- 5' 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.
- 10' GOAL! Mario Gotze fires home to make it 0-1!
- 15' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Danny Buijs will be considering his options from the bench.
- 20' FC Groningen currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 25' 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 Olivier Boscagli suffering a number of foals already.
- 30' PSV come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 35' It looks like no one’s ball. FC Groningen is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 40' PSV fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 45' PSV are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 48' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Jordan Teze on 48 minutes.
- 53' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 58' Supporters expect more eagerness from Philipp Max, as he is very good at scoring at Euroborg with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 63' The whistle greets Daniel van Kaam as he departs to be replaced by Romano Postema.
- 64' Fresh legs for PSV! Joey Veerman comes on to replace Marco van Ginkel.
- 66' Joey Veerman is replacing Marco van Ginkel for the PSV side.
- 71' The home supporters are growing impatient. FC Groningen must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 76' Bjorn Meijer has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 77' The FC Groningen bench stirs into life. Bjorn Meijer is withdrawn and Marin Sverko gets his opportunity.
- 78' A tactical swap from FC Groningen — Melayro Bogarde on, Michael de Leeuw off on 78 minutes.
- 82' A tactical swap from FC Groningen — Wessel Dammers on, Tomas Suslov off on 82 minutes.
- 87' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Groningen that had 307 games and scored 243 goals.
- 90' Philipp Max is replacing Mauro Junior for the PSV side.
