Events
Match Events
- 0' And we are off! Sparta Rotterdam vs SBV Vitesse — let the football do the talking.
- 5' 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 Armando Obispo suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 15' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 15 minutes.
- 20' It is a cagey affair so far. Sparta Rotterdam in their trying to find a way past SBV Vitesse's compact .
- 25' SBV Vitesse have won 317 goals from 282 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 30' Jurgen Mattheij puts Sparta Rotterdam on the lead.
- 35' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Leonid Slutsky will be considering his options from the bench.
- 37' Poor challenge from Bryan Smeets. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 42' Supporters expect more eagerness from Lassana Faye, as he is very good at scoring at Sparta-Stadion Het Kasteel with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 47' SBV Vitesse 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.
- 52' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Sparta Rotterdam that had 230 games and scored 307 goals.
- 57' Abdou Harroui has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 58' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Khalid Karami.
- 63' Over 63 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 68' Another change for SBV Vitesse made on 68 minute. Thomas Buitink leaves to be changed by Jay-Roy Grot.
- 72' Deroy Duarte is replacing Mohammed Rayhi for the Sparta Rotterdam side.
- 77' SBV Vitesse come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 81' Navarone Foor is ready to make an impact after coming on for Keisuke Honda at the 81 minute mark.
- 83' Goal! Bryan Smeets scores his 11 goal in 0 matches.
- 88' Sparta Rotterdam are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined SBV Vitesse backline.
- 90' A tactical swap from Sparta Rotterdam — Joel Piroe on, Ragnar Ache off on 90 minutes.
