59' It looks like no one’s ball. FC Utrecht is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
64' The Sparta Rotterdam bench stirs into life. Aaron Meijers is withdrawn and Mica Pinto gets his opportunity.
65' A change in the Sparta Rotterdam ranks — Sven Mijnans exits the field as Bryan Smeets enters on 65.

76' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Sander van de Streek makes it 0-6.
81' Bart Ramselaar gets the nod from FC Utrecht. He replaces Othman Boussaid and will look to change the dynamic.
83' Mario Engels gets the nod from Sparta Rotterdam. He replaces Younes Namli and will look to change the dynamic.
88' Mark van der Maarel has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
90' A tactical swap from Sparta Rotterdam — Achraf Madi on, Tom Beugelsdijk off on 90 minutes.
Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 0-3.
