Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Sparta Rotterdam gets underway.
- 5' SC Cambuur-Leeuwarden is showing some good football. However, SC Cambuur-Leeuwarden are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 9' Magnificent from Tobias Lauritsen! That is 38 goals in 237 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 10' Tobias Lauritsen adds to his 0 season tally! Sparta Rotterdam lead 0-2 — and this changes everything.
- 15' SC Cambuur-Leeuwarden are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Sparta Rotterdam's shape.
- 18' A goal from the Japan international Koki Saito! He fires home on 18 to make it 0-3!
- 19' Koki Saito with the second goal in the match!
- 24' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 29' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Sparta Rotterdam that had 237 games and scored 317 goals.
- 34' Shurandy Sambo has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 39' Sparta Rotterdam have won 317 goals from 237 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 44' The 31-year-old Nick Olij has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 46' The SC Cambuur-Leeuwarden manager makes a substitution. Tom Boere departs to be replaced by Roberts Uldrikis.
- 48' SC Cambuur-Leeuwarden ring the changes. Tom Boere has done his job and it is now time for Roberts Uldrikis to step up.
- 51' Vito van Crooij does the damage! The net is bulging and Sparta Rotterdam surge ahead!
- 53' That is a Yellow card for SC Cambuur-Leeuwarden. Doke Schmidt will be fuming at that decision.
- 54' Doke Schmidt is having his name booked by the referee on 54.
- 58' SC Cambuur-Leeuwarden manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Sai van Wermeskerken is hanging Doke Schmidt on the field on 58 minute.
- 60' The whistle greets Doke Schmidt as he departs to be replaced by Sai van Wermeskerken.
- 65' Netherlands international Daniel van Kaam has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 70' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 70 minutes.
- 75' SC Cambuur-Leeuwarden manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Vincent Pichel is hanging Mees Hoedemakers on the field on 75 minute.
- 80' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 81' The Sparta Rotterdam bench stirs into life. Sven Mijnans is withdrawn and Younes Namli gets his opportunity.
- 86' 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 Joshua Kitolano suffering a number of foals already.
- 88' Sparta Rotterdam make a change. Tobias Lauritsen trudges off to be replaced by Mike Eerdhuijzen on 88 minutes.
- 89' Tobias Lauritsen makes way for Mike Eerdhuijzen at the 89 minute mark. A tactical switch from Sparta Rotterdam.
- It finishes all square. SC Cambuur-Leeuwarden and Sparta Rotterdam share the spoils 0-3.
