Events

Match Events

  • 0' And we are off! PEC Zwolle vs Heracles Almelo — let the football do the talking.
  • 5' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 10' Supporters expect more eagerness from Ivan Mesik, as he is very good at scoring at MAC3PARK Stadion with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 13' A stunning finish from Dylan Vente — that came from absolutely nowhere!
  • 18' Heracles Almelo come into this ranked 15 in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 23' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Heracles Almelo that had 233 games and scored 284 goals.
  • 28' named a 4-2-3-1 earlier, and opted for a 4-4-2 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 33' The travelling Heracles Almelo supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 36' The referee calls foul for Ivan Mesik. He receives a card.
  • 41' Odysseus Velanas has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 8 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 46' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 48' Heracles Almelo make a change. Daniel van Kaam trudges off to be replaced by Sem Scheperman on 48 minutes.
  • 53' It looks like no one’s ball. PEC Zwolle is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 58' Over 58 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 62' A meaty challenge results in booking for Nick Fichtinger on 62.
  • 64' Fresh legs for PEC Zwolle! Dylan Mbayo comes on to replace Nick Fichtinger.
  • 69' Heracles Almelo fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 72' The Heracles Almelo bench stirs into life. Juho Talvitie is withdrawn and Luka Kulenovic gets his opportunity.
  • 77' A change in the PEC Zwolle ranks — Dylan Vente exits the field as Thomas Buitink enters on 77.
  • 78' The deadlock is broken! Dylan Mbayo gets on the scoresheet on 78 minutes.
  • 80' Another substitution for Heracles Almelo to replace Damon Mirani by Bryan Limbombe on 80 minute.
  • 81' Eliano Reijnders gets the nod from PEC Zwolle. He replaces Anouar El Azzouzi and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 83' The crowd applauds Mimeirhel Benita as he leaves the pitch. Jannes Wieckhoff steps in for Heracles Almelo.
  • 88' 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.
  • The final score is 3-0.
