Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Heracles Almelo kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering VBV De Graafschap that had 35 games and scored 41 goals.
  • 15' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 20' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Silvester van der Water made 233 appearances and scored 19 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 25' Erik Bakker has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 27' What a strike from Javier Vet! The score is 0-1.
  • 32' 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.
  • 37' VBV De Graafschap 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.
  • 42' 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 Youssef Jebli suffering a number of foals already.
  • 45' Another change for Heracles Almelo made on 45 minute. Silvester van der Water leaves to be changed by Brandley Kuwas.
  • 50' Adrian Dalmau was booked on 50.
  • 52' The referee calls foul for Robert Klaasen. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 57' It looks surprising Heracles Almelo does not make any changes. Delano Burgzorg has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 58' What an equalizer from Kristoffer Peterson!
  • 63' The whistle greets Stef Nijland as he departs to be replaced by Delano Burgzorg.
  • 68' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 69' The VBV De Graafschap manager makes a substitution. Erik Bakker departs to be replaced by Frank Olijve.
  • 73' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Bart van Hintum.
  • 75' Time for substitution for Heracles Almelo. Adrian Dalmau is replaced by Vincent Vermeij.
  • 80' The supporters are chanting for Jordy Thomassen. He replaces Youssef Jebli on 80 minute.
  • 81' Brandley Kuwas puts Heracles Almelo on the lead.
  • 86' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 86 minutes.
  • 88' That looks like a foul for a Red card for Fabian Serrarens.
  • 89' That looks like a foul for a Red card for Fabian Serrarens.
  • 89' Time for substitution for Heracles Almelo. Lerin Duarte is replaced by Dabney dos Santos.
  • 90' GOAL! Vincent Vermeij scores on 90. Assisted by Mohammed Osman
  • That’s it! Another goalless match for Heracles Almelo and VBV De Graafschap (для сухой ничьи).
