Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Sparta Rotterdam gets underway.
- 5' Sparta Rotterdam is showing some good football. However, Sparta Rotterdam are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 10' It’s high time Ruben den Uil made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 14' GOAL! Giannino Vianello scores on 14.
- 19' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. SBV Excelsior needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 24' Lewis Schouten has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 29' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 34' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
- 39' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Arthur Zagre made 520 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 40' The referee calls foul for Vito van Crooij. He receives a card.
- 45' Sparta Rotterdam seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 50' What a strike from Arthur Zagre! The score is 1-1.
- 53' What a strike from Ayoni Santos! The score is 2-1.
- 54' Sparta Rotterdam receives a card for a hard tackle on 54.
- 59' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering SBV Excelsior that had 137 games and scored 155 goals.
- 62' GOAL! Noah Naujoks scores on 62.
- 67' The travelling SBV Excelsior supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 71' The referee calls foul for Teo Quintero. He receives a card.
- 76' 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 Derensili Sanches Fernandes suffering a number of foals already.
- 81' It looks surprising SBV Excelsior does not make any changes. Lennard Hartjes has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 86' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 89' Patrick van Aanholt is having his name booked by the referee on 89.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for SBV Excelsior players.
