  • 37' SBV Vitesse started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 37.
  • 42' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

  • 65' The referee calls foul for Enzo Cornelisse. He receives a Yellow card.
