Events

Match Events

  • 0' What a night it is going to be! Netherlands welcome Morocco for this crunch clash at Estadio BBVA.
  • 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 Ayyoub Bouaddi suffering a number of foals already.
  • 10' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 15' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 20' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 25' The 25-year-old Mickey van de Ven has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 30' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 30 minutes.
  • 35' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 40' 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.
  • 45' Azzedine Ounahi has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 1 appearances with only 2 goals this season.
  • 47' A meaty challenge results in booking for Issa Diop on 47.
  • 52' Netherlands are deployed in a 5-2-3 today, looking to exploit space against Morocco's 4-2-3-1 shape.
  • 57' Netherlands are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 62' Over 62 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 67' It looks like no one’s ball. Morocco is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 71' Wout Weghorst has so much to prove this time. He replaces Brian Brobbey on 71 minute.
  • 72' GOAL! Cody Gakpo scores on 72. Assisted by Crysencio Summerville
  • 75' Anass Salah-Eddine has so much to prove this time. He replaces Chadi Riad on 75 minute.
  • 79' The whistle greets Brahim Diaz as he departs to be replaced by Gessime Yassine.
  • 84' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 86' The whistle greets Mickey van de Ven as he departs to be replaced by Jorrel Hato.
  • Netherlands will have plenty to reflect on. Morocco were simply the better side today.
