Events

Match Events

  • 5' Willem II Tilburg started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 5.
  • 10' SBV Excelsior 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.
  • 15' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 15 minutes.
  • 16' Willem II Tilburg is taking the lead after the goal scored by Renato Tapia on 16.
  • 21' It looks like no one’s ball. SBV Excelsior is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 26' Supporters expect more eagerness from Ali Messaoud, as he is very good at scoring at Van Donge & De Roo Stadion with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
  • 31' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. SBV Excelsior needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 36' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 41' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 46' It is a substitution in SBV Excelsior team. Luigi Bruins is replaced by Marcus Edwards on 46 minute.
  • 51' Diego Palacios needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 56' It looks surprising Willem II Tilburg does not make any changes. Michael Woud has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 61' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Alessandro Damen made 137 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 63' Denis Mahmudov has so much to prove this time. He replaces Siebe Horemans on 63 minute.
  • 65' Time for substitution for Willem II Tilburg. Marious Vrousai is replaced by Vurnon Anita.
  • 70' 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 Alexander Isak suffering a number of foals already.
  • 75' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 78' Dries Saddiki is replacing Damil Dankerlui for the Willem II Tilburg side.
