Events

Match Events

  • 0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. SBV Excelsior is hosting FC Utrecht for another epic battle.
  • 5' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both SBV Excelsior and FC Utrecht are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
  • 10' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 15' The travelling FC Utrecht supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 20' Mike van der Hoorn has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 1 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 25' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 25 minutes.
  • 30' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Sam Lammers made 369 appearances and scored 52 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 35' It looks like no one’s ball. FC Utrecht is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 40' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 45' It is a cagey affair so far. SBV Excelsior in their 4-2-3-1 trying to find a way past FC Utrecht's compact 4-3-3.
  • 46' The supporters are chanting for Kik Pierie. He replaces Arthur Zagre on 46 minute.
  • 51' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 56' FC Utrecht fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 61' FC Utrecht come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 63' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Jens Toornstra makes no mistake. 0-1!
  • 65' What an equalizer from Siebe Horemans!
  • 66' Noah Naujoks makes way for Cisse Sandra at the 66 minute mark. A tactical switch from SBV Excelsior.
  • 71' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 76' Germany international Can Bozdogan has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 80' Fresh legs for FC Utrecht! Victor Jensen comes on to replace Jens Toornstra.
  • 85' It looks surprising SBV Excelsior does not make any changes. Ole Romeny has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 90' 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.
  • Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 1-1 draw is a fair result on the day.
