Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Fortuna Sittard Stadion. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Fortuna Sittard and NEC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
  • 10' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. NEC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 15' The home supporters are growing impatient. Fortuna Sittard must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 20' Mitchell Dijks has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 11 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 25' Fortuna Sittard are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined NEC backline.
  • 30' 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 Ivan Marquez suffering a number of foals already.
  • 35' Koki Ogawa has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 35 minutes.
  • 40' Assisted by Thomas Ouwejan with the perfectly-timed delivery and Roberto Gonzalez makes no mistake. 0-2!
  • 45' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Fortuna Sittard side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 50' Fortuna Sittard are deployed in a 4-1-4-1 today, looking to exploit space against NEC's 4-2-3-1 shape.
  • 55' It’s high time Danny Buijs made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 60' NEC has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 1 meetings.
  • 65' named a 4-1-4-1 earlier, and opted for a 4-2-3-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 70' 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.
  • 75' Fortuna Sittard are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 80' Makan Aiko has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 85' Ivo Pinto has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 88' Goal! Sami Ouaissa scores his 7 goal in 188 matches.
  • What a match! Full time at {STADIUM} — Fortuna Sittard 0-3 NEC.
