Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: FC Groningen gets underway.
- 5' It looks surprising FC Groningen does not make any changes. Gernot Trauner has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 10' 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.
- 11' GOAL! Jordan Bos scores on 11. Assisted by Luciano Valente
- 16' Feyenoord Rotterdam looks like a favorite considering 2 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Ayase Ueda scoring 2 goals.
- 21' The referee calls foul for Etienne Vaessen. He receives a card.
- 22' GOAL! Ayase Ueda scores on 22.
- 27' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Groningen that had 295 games and scored 196 goals.
- 32' 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 Raheem Sterling suffering a number of foals already.
- 37' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 42' It looks like no one’s ball. Feyenoord Rotterdam is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 47' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 52' Dies Janse was booked on 52.
- 57' Supporters expect more eagerness from Oussama Targhalline, as he is very good at scoring at de Kuip with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 62' 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.
- 63' It is a substitution in Feyenoord Rotterdam team. Gernot Trauner is replaced by Jerry St. Juste on 63 minute.
- 67' Goal! Ayase Ueda scores his 64 goal in 79 matches.
- 69' FC Groningen manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Ryan Metu is hanging Younes Taha on the field on 69 minute.
- 74' The supporters are chanting for Jordan Lotomba. He replaces Tobias van den Elshout on 74 minute.
- 79' Dies Janse needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 80' Another substitution for FC Groningen to replace Tika de Jonge by Travis Hernes on 80 minute.
- 83' Another change for Feyenoord Rotterdam made on 83 minute. Thijs Kraaijeveld leaves to be changed by Ilai Grootfaam.
