  • 26' Supporters expect more eagerness from Younes Namli, as he is very good at scoring at MAC3PARK Stadion with 4 goals in the last 4 games.
  • 31' It is a cagey affair so far. PEC Zwolle in their 4-2-3-1 trying to find a way past SBV Excelsior's compact 5-4-1.
  • 36' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 41' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 46' SBV Excelsior 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.
  • 51' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 53' The referee calls foul for Irakli Yegoian. He receives a card.

  • 80' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Szymon Wlodarczyk makes it 2-2.
  • 85' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering PEC Zwolle that had 232 games and scored 257 goals.
  • 90' It looks like no one’s ball. SBV Excelsior is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • The final score is 2-2.
