Events
Match Events
- 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and NEC launch into their encounter with FC Twente \'65.
- 5' NEC 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.
- 10' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 15' Virgil Misidjan gets the nod from FC Twente '65. He replaces Daan Rots and will look to change the dynamic.
- 20' 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 Robin Propper suffering a number of foals already.
- 25' The energy levels are beginning to show. Rogier Meijer might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 30' It’s high time Ron Jans made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.

- 45' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
