Events
Match Events
- 0' The wait is over. Sparta Rotterdam get us underway at Philips Stadion.
- 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Malik Tillman made 540 appearances and scored 41 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 10' What a moment for Tobias Lauritsen! That strike on 10 puts his side firmly in control.
- 15' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His PSV side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 20' With 0 assists to his name this season, Walter Benitez is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Sparta Rotterdam.
- 25' Sparta Rotterdam 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.
- 30' The home supporters are growing impatient. PSV must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 34' What a strike from Arno Verschueren! The score is 0-2.
- 38' A stunning finish from Luuk de Jong — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 41' Shunsuke Mito is replacing Tobias Lauritsen for the Sparta Rotterdam side.
- 46' PSV ring the changes. Ivan Perisic has done his job and it is now time for Johan Bakayoko to step up.
- 47' Sparta Rotterdam player sees a card in front of him.
- 49' It’s a booking for PSV player. Matteo Dams gets a card.
- 54' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 59' Sparta Rotterdam started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 59.
- 64' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 68' Sparta Rotterdam ring the changes. Pelle Clement has done his job and it is now time for Julian Baas to step up.
- 69' It is a substitution in PSV team. Luuk de Jong is replaced by Ricardo Pepi on 69 minute.
- 73' Sparta Rotterdam player sees a card in front of him.
- 77' PSV make a change. Ismael Saibari trudges off to be replaced by Armando Obispo on 77 minutes.
- 82' A tactical swap from Sparta Rotterdam — Boyd Reith on, Said Bakari off on 82 minutes.
- 83' Noa Lang is ready to make an impact after coming on for Malik Tillman at the 83 minute mark.
- 88' 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 Mauro Junior suffering a number of foals already.
- 90' PSV make a change. Guus Til trudges off to be replaced by Adamo Nagalo on 90 minutes.
- What a match! Full time at {STADIUM} — PSV 2-1 Sparta Rotterdam.
