Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. SC Heerenveen kicks off things out of here…

- 25' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 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 Denzel Hall suffering a number of foals already.

- 66' The SC Heerenveen bench stirs into life. Oliver Braude is withdrawn and Denzel Hall gets his opportunity.
- 67' GOAL! Kristoffer Peterson fires home to make it 2-0!
- 72' Poland international Pawel Bochniewicz has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
