- 30' That looks like a foul for a card for Mathis Suray.

- 65' The supporters are chanting for Finn Stokkers. He replaces Robbin Weijenberg on 65 minute.
- 70' SC Heerenveen is showing some good football. However, SC Heerenveen are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 75' Go Ahead Eagles currently sit 7 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 80' SC Heerenveen ring the changes. Hristiyan Petrov has done his job and it is now time for Espen van Ee to step up.
- 85' It’s high time Robin Veldman made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
