Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Estadio BBVA. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' Nathan Ake needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 10' Morocco started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 10.
  • 15' The 24-year-old Ryan Gravenberch has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 2 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 20' named a 5-2-3 earlier, and opted for a 4-2-3-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 25' Chadi Riad has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 30' Netherlands are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 35' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 40' Netherlands are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Morocco backline.
  • 45' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 47' That looks like a foul for a card for Issa Diop.
  • 52' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 57' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 57 minutes.
  • 62' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 67' The travelling Morocco supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 71' The whistle greets Brian Brobbey as he departs to be replaced by Wout Weghorst.
  • 72' GOAL! Cody Gakpo fires home to make it 1-0!
  • 75' The Morocco manager makes a substitution. Chadi Riad departs to be replaced by Anass Salah-Eddine.
  • 79' The crowd applauds Brahim Diaz as he leaves the pitch. Gessime Yassine steps in for Morocco.
  • 84' It is a cagey affair so far. Netherlands in their 5-2-3 trying to find a way past Morocco's compact 4-2-3-1.
  • 86' The supporters are chanting for Jorrel Hato. He replaces Mickey van de Ven on 86 minute.
  • 3-4 the final result. Netherlands will be bitterly disappointed.
