Events
Match Events
- 0' Three points are at stake. Sparta Rotterdam host SC Heerenveen — let the battle begin!
- 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Joeri de Kamps, as he is very good at scoring at Sparta Stadion with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 10' Adil Auassar has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 5 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 15' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Sparta Rotterdam that had 235 games and scored 316 goals.
- 20' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. SC Heerenveen needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 25' Vito van Crooij is a natural midfielder and has been asked to do a very specific job for Sparta Rotterdam tonight.
- 30' Sparta Rotterdam started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 30.
- 35' 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 Sydney van Hooijdonk suffering a number of foals already.
- 40' A quiet spell here at Sparta Stadion. SC Heerenveen seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 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.
- 46' Sparta Rotterdam manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Mica Pinto is hanging Riza Durmisi on the field on 46 minute.
- 51' The home supporters are growing impatient. Sparta Rotterdam must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 52' The deadlock is broken! Vito van Crooij gets on the scoresheet on 52 minutes.
- 57' Sparta Rotterdam are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against SC Heerenveen's shape.
- 62' It looks like no one’s ball. Sparta Rotterdam is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 64' Sparta Rotterdam make a change. Lennart Thy trudges off to be replaced by Adrian Dalmau on 64 minutes.
- 67' Goal! Amin Sarr scores his 16 goal in 248 matches.
- 72' Sven Mijnans is replacing Younes Namli for the Sparta Rotterdam side.
- 77' Sparta Rotterdam currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 79' Adil Auassar makes way for Tom Beugelsdijk at the 79 minute mark. A tactical switch from Sparta Rotterdam.
- 84' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 88' Siem de Jong gets the nod from SC Heerenveen. He replaces Amin Sarr and will look to change the dynamic.
- 90' Filip Stevanovic is replacing Arjen van der Heide for the SC Heerenveen side.
