Events

Match Events

  • 0' The wait is over. NEC get us underway at de Kuip.
  • 5' It looks surprising NEC does not make any changes. Ilias Bronkhorst has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 10' Feyenoord Rotterdam have won 629 goals from 322 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 13' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Mattijs Branderhorst.
  • 14' Against the run of play, Orkun Kokcu has scored! This game has turned on its head.
  • 17' GOAL! Luis Sinisterra fires home to make it 2-0!
  • 22' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 27' Calvin Verdonk has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 1 cards already picked up this season.
  • 32' The Denmark Magnus Mattsson breaks the deadlock on 32 minutes. 2-1!

  • 61' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 66' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
