Events
Match Events
- 0' That's the starting whistle at MAC3PARK Stadion. Ninety minutes of football awaits between PEC Zwolle and Sparta Rotterdam.
- 5' It’s gonna be a card for Sheral Floranus.
- 10' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 15' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 20' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both PEC Zwolle and Sparta Rotterdam are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 25' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 25 minutes.
- 30' Belgium international Dylan Mbayo has been a key figure this campaign — 1 goals and 2 assists in the Array this season.
- 32' A moment of madness from Jamiro Monteiro on 32 minutes earns him a card. PEC Zwolle will be frustrated.
- 37' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Sparta Rotterdam that had 234 games and scored 314 goals.
- 42' Sparta Rotterdam are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 47' Over 47 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 52' It looks surprising PEC Zwolle does not make any changes. Tobias Lauritsen has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 57' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Jamiro Monteiro makes it 1-0.
- 62' Patrick van Aanholt is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for PEC Zwolle so far.
- 66' Another change for Sparta Rotterdam made on 66 minute. Teo Quintero leaves to be changed by Rick Meissen.
- 71' The travelling Sparta Rotterdam supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 74' That looks like a foul for a card for Patrick van Aanholt.
- 75' Djevencio van der Kust is replacing Patrick van Aanholt for the Sparta Rotterdam side.
- 76' Metinho is replacing Julian Baas for the Sparta Rotterdam side.
- 79' It is a substitution in PEC Zwolle team. Younes Namli is replaced by Odysseus Velanas on 79 minute.
- 80' PEC Zwolle make a change. Dylan Mbayo trudges off to be replaced by Kaj de Rooij on 80 minutes.
- 85' 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 Nick Fichtinger suffering a number of foals already.
- 87' Another substitution for Sparta Rotterdam to replace Mohamed Nassoh by Charles-Andreas Brym on 87 minute.
- 90' PEC Zwolle ring the changes. Jamiro Monteiro has done his job and it is now time for Olivier Aertssen to step up.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Sparta Rotterdam.
