Events
Match Events
- 0' It’s Showtime! The match between PSV and Sparta Rotterdam is underway.
- 5' 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 Philipp Max suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' Jarrad Branthwaite is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for PSV so far.
- 15' Both keepers have barely been tested. PSV and Sparta Rotterdam are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 20' Sparta Rotterdam are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 25' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His PSV side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 30' Belgium international Arno Verschueren has been a key figure this campaign — 1 goals and 3 assists in the Array this season.
- 35' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 35 minutes.
- 40' Sparta Rotterdam fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 45' That is a Yellow card for Sparta Rotterdam. Bart Vriends will be fuming at that decision.
- 50' Mike Eerdhuijzen, a Netherlands defender, has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 51' PSV receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 51.
- 52' Poor challenge from Noni Madueke. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 57' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 62' Sparta Rotterdam are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 67' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 69' Erick Gutierrez gets the nod from PSV. He replaces Joey Veerman and will look to change the dynamic.
- 70' Sparta Rotterdam player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 75' PSV has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
- 80' With 0 assists to his name this season, Mica Pinto is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Sparta Rotterdam.
- 85' Bart Vriends has been relatively quiet despite scoring 13 goals in his last 242 appearances.
- 86' The crowd applauds Philipp Max as he leaves the pitch. Marco van Ginkel steps in for PSV.
- 88' A tactical swap from Sparta Rotterdam — Mike Eerdhuijzen on, Arno Verschueren off on 88 minutes.
