- 5' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 10' Souffian El Karouani has been relatively quiet despite scoring 5 goals in his last 176 appearances.
- 15' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 20' FC Utrecht have won 439 goals from 321 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 25' It is a substitution in FC Utrecht team. Taylor Booth is replaced by Jeppe Okkels on 25 minute.
- 29' Jens Toornstra has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 29 minutes.
- 34' Youri Regeer has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 39' FC Twente \'65 are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 44' It’s high time Ron Jans made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 49' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
- 54' FC Twente \'65 are deployed in a 4-2-3-1 today, looking to exploit space against FC Utrecht's 4-2-3-1 shape.
