Events
Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for SBV Excelsior to score. At the same time, NAC Breda does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 5' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both SBV Excelsior and NAC Breda are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 10' The energy levels are beginning to show. Adrie Poldervaart might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 15' NAC Breda is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 20' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His SBV Excelsior side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 25' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 30' Mounir El Hamdaoui puts SBV Excelsior on the lead.
- 35' Thomas Oude Kotte has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 40' Both keepers have barely been tested. SBV Excelsior and NAC Breda are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 45' Benjamin van Leer has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 46' A tactical swap from NAC Breda — Khalid Karami on, Pele van Anholt off on 46 minutes.
- 51' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering NAC Breda that had 103 games and scored 74 goals.

- 74' Time for substitution for SBV Excelsior. Mounir El Hamdaoui is replaced by Dennis Eckert.
- 79' NAC Breda started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 79.
- 84' 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.
- 85' SBV Excelsior ring the changes. Ali Messaoud has done his job and it is now time for Denis Mahmudov to step up.
- 90' Assisted by Ramon-Pascal Lundqvist with the perfectly-timed delivery and Menno Koch makes no mistake. 1-2!
- 90' Another change for SBV Excelsior made on 90 minute. Luigi Bruins leaves to be changed by Jeffrey Fortes.
