Events

Match Events

  • 0' Heracles Almelo have kicked off against Fortuna Sittard. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
  • 5' It is a cagey affair so far. Heracles Almelo in their 4-2-3-1 trying to find a way past Fortuna Sittard's compact 4-4-2.
  • 10' Heracles Almelo are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.

  • 20' Alessio Da Cruz is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Heracles Almelo so far.
  • 25' 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 Kelvin Leerdam suffering a number of foals already.
  • 30' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.

  • 65' Mouhamed Belkheir is ready to make an impact after coming on for Kristoffer Peterson at the 65 minute mark.
  • 70' The energy levels are beginning to show. Danny Buijs might look to freshen things up shortly.

  • 83' Fortuna Sittard ring the changes. Alessio Da Cruz has done his job and it is now time for Iman Griffith to step up.
