Events

Match Events

  • 0' What a night it is going to be! RKC Waalwijk welcome Fortuna Sittard for this crunch clash at Mandemakers Stadion.
  • 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 Reuven Niemeijer suffering a number of foals already.
  • 10' The travelling Fortuna Sittard supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 15' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 20' Michael Verrips has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 25' Mitchell Dijks has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 30' RKC Waalwijk are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Fortuna Sittard backline.
  • 35' A quiet spell here at Mandemakers Stadion. RKC Waalwijk seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 40' named a 4-2-3-1 earlier, and opted for a 4-3-1-2 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 45' Denilho Cleonise is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Fortuna Sittard tonight.
  • 46' The supporters are chanting for Oguzhan Ozyakup. He replaces Arianit Ferati on 46 minute.
  • 51' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both RKC Waalwijk and Fortuna Sittard are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 56' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 57' The whistle greets Denilho Cleonise as he departs to be replaced by Richonell Margaret.
  • 62' The energy levels are beginning to show. Danny Buijs might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 67' It looks like no one’s ball. RKC Waalwijk is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 71' The whistle greets Kristoffer Peterson as he departs to be replaced by Ragnar Oratmangoen.
  • 76' RKC Waalwijk are deployed in a 4-2-3-1 today, looking to exploit space against Fortuna Sittard's 4-3-1-2 shape.

  • 81' Another change for RKC Waalwijk made on 81 minute. David Min leaves to be changed by Michiel Kramer.
  • 86' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 89' GOAL! Kaj Sierhuis fires home to make it 0-1!
  • 89' Time for substitution for RKC Waalwijk. Reuven Niemeijer is replaced by Filip Stevanovic.
