- 10' SBV Vitesse started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 10.
- 12' Martin Angha was booked on 12.
- 13' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Martin Angha.
- 18' SBV Vitesse 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.
- 23' Matus Bero has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 28' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Thomas Letsch will be considering his options from the bench.
- 29' It is a substitution in Fortuna Sittard team. Andreas Samaris is replaced by Nigel Lonwijk on 29 minute.
- 34' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.

- 56' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
