Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: FC Utrecht gets underway.

- 15' Gyrano Kerk has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 20' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 25' 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 Willem Janssen suffering a number of foals already.
- 30' It looks surprising FC Utrecht does not make any changes. Bryan Smeets has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 35' It is a cagey affair so far. Sparta Rotterdam in their trying to find a way past FC Utrecht's compact .
- 40' Simon Gustafson needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 45' Both keepers have barely been tested. Sparta Rotterdam and FC Utrecht are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 50' Tom Beugelsdijk catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 50.

- 72' Eric Oelschlagel, a Germany , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
