- 5' The travelling Fortuna Sittard supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 10' FC Utrecht 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.
- 15' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.

- 56' Over 56 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 61' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Mitchell Dijks made 480 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
