Events
Match Events
- 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and PSV launch into their encounter with Fortuna Sittard.
- 5' GOAL! Donyell Malen scores on 5. Assisted by Eran Zahavi
- 10' Roel Janssen has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 15' Denzel Dumfries needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 46 Yellow cards this season.
- 20' PSV is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 25' The home supporters are growing impatient. PSV must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 30' The energy levels are beginning to show. Roger Schmidt might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 35' The travelling Fortuna Sittard supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 40' 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.
- 42' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Mats Seuntjens.
- 47' Djibril Dianessy has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 4 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 52' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 57' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 62' PSV manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Jorrit Hendrix is hanging Mauro Junior on the field on 62 minute.
- 67' PSV are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Fortuna Sittard's shape.
- 71' Emil Hansson is replacing Lisandro Semedo for the Fortuna Sittard side.
- 74' Bassala Sambou gets the nod from Fortuna Sittard. He replaces Jorrit Smeets and will look to change the dynamic.
- 79' 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 Alexei Coselev suffering a number of foals already.
- 84' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 85' Assisted by Donyell Malen with the perfectly-timed delivery and Chukwunonso Madueke makes no mistake. 2-0!
- 87' The whistle greets Llazaros Rota as he departs to be replaced by Branislav Ninaj.
- 90' PSV manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Michal Sadilek is hanging Donyell Malen on the field on 90 minute.
- That’s it! Another goalless match for PSV and Fortuna Sittard (для сухой ничьи).
