Events
Match Events
- 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against PEC Zwolle and Heracles Almelo has kicked off!
- 5' Shiloh 't Zand has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 2 goals this season.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Damian van der Haar made 244 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 13' Against the run of play, Dylan Vente has scored! This game has turned on its head.
- 18' Heracles Almelo is showing some good football. However, Heracles Almelo are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 23' 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 Jannes Wieckhoff suffering a number of foals already.
- 28' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
