Events
Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds GelreDome will turn into a battlefield for SBV Vitesse and AZ.
- 5' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 10' AZ come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 15' The 24-year-old Daan Huisman has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 20' 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.
- 25' Yukinari Sugawara has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 26' Poor challenge from Riechedly Bazoer. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 31' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering AZ that had 300 games and scored 566 goals.
- 36' Both keepers have barely been tested. SBV Vitesse and AZ are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 41' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 46' The supporters are chanting for Toni Domgjoni. He replaces Matus Bero on 46 minute.
- 51' Albert Gudmundsson is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for AZ so far.
- 56' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Owen Wijndal made 300 appearances and scored 5 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 60' Nikolai Baden Frederiksen gets the nod from SBV Vitesse. He replaces Thomas Buitink and will look to change the dynamic.
- 63' Jesper Karlsson is having his name booked by the referee on 63.
- 68' Fresh legs for AZ! Albert Gudmundsson comes on to replace Dani de Wit.
- 73' Million Manhoef has been relatively quiet despite scoring 25 goals in his last 282 appearances.
- 76' The supporters are chanting for Tijani Reijnders. He replaces Jordy Clasie on 76 minute.
- 80' Time for substitution for AZ. Aslak Fonn Witry is replaced by Yukinari Sugawara.
- 84' A tactical swap from SBV Vitesse — Million Manhoef on, Lois Openda off on 84 minutes.
- 89' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- celebrates a vital win. Three points that could prove pivotal come season's end.
