Events
Match Events
- 0' Welcome to Stadion Feijenoord that hosts another battle between Feyenoord Rotterdam and AZ.
- 5' Feyenoord Rotterdam started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 5.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Thomas Ouwejan made 315 appearances and scored 9 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 15' Feyenoord Rotterdam are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined AZ backline.
- 20' AZ have won 593 goals from 315 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 25' Feyenoord Rotterdam is showing some good football. However, Feyenoord Rotterdam are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 30' Myron Boadu has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 2 goals to his name this season.
- 35' Both keepers have barely been tested. Feyenoord Rotterdam and AZ are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 36' Magnificent from Mats Seuntjens! That is 33 goals in 315 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 41' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 46' The 33-year-old Adam Maher has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 51' Tyrell Malacia doubles the advantage! 1-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 56' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Giovanni van Bronckhorst will be considering his options from the bench.
- 59' Feyenoord Rotterdam ring the changes. Cuco Martina has done his job and it is now time for Jerry St. Juste to step up.
- 64' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 64 minutes.
- 67' AZ ring the changes. Stijn Wuytens has done his job and it is now time for Oussama Idrissi to step up.
- 68' Robin van Persie puts Feyenoord Rotterdam on the lead.
- 73' AZ come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 74' Another substitution for AZ to replace Calvin Stengs by Bjorn Maars Johnsen on 74 minute.
- 79' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 83' A meaty challenge results in booking for Steven Berghuis on 83.
- 84' Time for substitution for Feyenoord Rotterdam. Robin van Persie is replaced by Yassin Ayoub.
- 88' Another substitution for Feyenoord Rotterdam to replace Sam Larsson by Jan-Arie van der Heijden on 88 minute.
