Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Polman Stadion. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' 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 Brandley Kuwas suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Heracles Almelo side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 12' A goal from the Netherlands international Steven Bergwijn! He fires home on 12 to make it 0-1!
- 17' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. PSV needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 22' It looks like no one’s ball. PSV is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 23' Lerin Duarte has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 23.
- 28' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering PSV that had 441 games and scored 836 goals.
- 33' Daniel Schwaab doubles the advantage! 0-2 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 38' 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.
- 43' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 45' Jesper Drost catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Red card on 45.
- 50' Janis Blaswich catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 50.
- 55' PSV fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 60' Heracles Almelo are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 61' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Pablo Rosario on 61 minutes.
- 62' The Heracles Almelo manager makes a substitution. Bart van Hintum departs to be replaced by Lennart-Marten Czyborra.
- 65' Alexander Merkel has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 65.
- 70' Pablo Rosario has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 73' A change in the PSV ranks — Pablo Rosario exits the field as Donyell Malen enters on 73.
- 76' The Heracles Almelo bench stirs into life. Lerin Duarte is withdrawn and Dabney dos Santos gets his opportunity.
- 79' Denzel Dumfries has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 79 minutes.
- 82' Heracles Almelo make a change. Kristoffer Peterson trudges off to be replaced by Joey Konings on 82 minutes.
- 85' Steven Bergwijn makes way for Gaston Pereiro at the 85 minute mark. A tactical switch from PSV.
- 88' The PSV manager makes a substitution. Jorrit Hendrix departs to be replaced by Dante Rigo.
- 90' The Uruguay Gaston Pereiro breaks the deadlock on 90 minutes. 0-4!
- 90' Lennart-Marten Czyborra picks up a Red card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- What a match! Full time at {STADIUM} — Heracles Almelo 0-4 PSV.
