Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: FC Groningen gets underway.
- 5' FC Groningen 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.
- 10' The travelling SBV Vitesse supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 15' Laros Duarte has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 7 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 20' It looks surprising SBV Vitesse does not make any changes. Daleho Irandust has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 25' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. FC Groningen needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 30' It looks like no one’s ball. FC Groningen is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 35' FC Groningen are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined SBV Vitesse backline.
- 40' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 45' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Luciano Valente made 314 appearances and scored 6 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 46' Time for substitution for FC Groningen. Paulos Abraham is replaced by Yahya Kalley.
- 51' FC Groningen currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 56' Croatia international Marin Sverko has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 61' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 66' FC Groningen are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 69' Million Manhoef has so much to prove this time. He replaces Gabriel Vidovic on 69 minute.
- 74' Ryan Flamingo is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for FC Groningen tonight.
- 77' What a strike from Matus Bero! The score is 0-1.
- 79' The referee shows FC Groningen player a Yellow card on 79.
- 80' Another change for FC Groningen made on 80 minute. Radinio Balker leaves to be changed by Marin Sverko.
- 81' The SBV Vitesse bench stirs into life. Kacper Kozlowski is withdrawn and Romaric Yapi gets his opportunity.
- 82' Ryan Flamingo was booked on 82.
- 87' FC Groningen is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 90' Carlens Arcus has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 90.
- Another three points for SBV Vitesse.
