Events

Match Events

0' That's the starting whistle at Abe Lenstra Stadion. Ninety minutes of football awaits between SC Heerenveen and Sparta Rotterdam.
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' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering SC Heerenveen that had 369 games and scored 356 goals.
15' 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 Mats Kohlert suffering a number of foals already.
20' named a earlier, and opted for a in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
25' Sydney van Hooijdonk has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 25.
30' The travelling Sparta Rotterdam supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
35' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
40' Over 40 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
45' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
50' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Arno Verschueren.
55' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Kees van Wonderen will be considering his options from the bench.
60' Younes Namli is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for SC Heerenveen so far.
65' Sparta Rotterdam fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
70' 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.
74' Sven Mijnans gets the nod from Sparta Rotterdam. He replaces Arno Verschueren and will look to change the dynamic.
78' Fresh legs for Sparta Rotterdam! Joshua Kitolano comes on to replace Younes Namli.
83' Andries Noppert needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
86' Another substitution for SC Heerenveen to replace Thom Haye by Simon Olsson on 86 minute.
