Events

Match Events

0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for SBV Excelsior to score. At the same time, FC Utrecht does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
5' 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.
10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Rick Meissen made 317 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
11' What a strike from Noah Naujoks! The score is 1-0.
16' Supporters expect more eagerness from Siebe Horemans, as he is very good at scoring at Van Donge & De Roo Stadion with 3 goals in the last 3 games.
21' It looks surprising FC Utrecht does not make any changes. Mike van der Hoorn has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
26' It’s high time Ron Jans made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
29' The referee shows FC Utrecht player a card on 29.
31' FC Utrecht receives a card for a hard tackle on 31.
36' GOAL! Derensili Sanches Fernandes scores on 36. Assisted by Gyan de Regt
41' It is a substitution in FC Utrecht team. Artem Stepanov is replaced by Siebe Horemans on 41 minute.
46' FC Utrecht manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Emeka Adiele is hanging Souffian El Karouani on the field on 46 minute.
51' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
55' GOAL! Derensili Sanches Fernandes scores on 55. Assisted by Arthur Zagre
60' The travelling FC Utrecht supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
63' Szymon Wlodarczyk has so much to prove this time. He replaces Emil Hansson on 63 minute.
64' The referee shows FC Utrecht player a card on 64.
69' GOAL! Irakli Yegoian scores on 69.
72' The supporters are chanting for Can Bozdogan. He replaces Gjivai Zechiel on 72 minute.
76' The whistle greets Derensili Sanches Fernandes as he departs to be replaced by Ilias Bronkhorst.
80' The FC Utrecht manager makes a substitution. Angel Alarcon departs to be replaced by David Min.
85' SBV Excelsior manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Simon Janssen is hanging Noah Naujoks on the field on 85 minute.
90' 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 Can Bozdogan suffering a number of foals already.
Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for SBV Excelsior players.
