Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Abe Lenstra Stadion. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' Maas Willemsen has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 10' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 12' Fortuna Sittard is taking the lead after the goal scored by Philip Brittijn on 12.
- 16' What an equalizer from Ringo Meerveld!
- 21' The travelling Fortuna Sittard supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 26' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 31' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 31 minutes.
- 36' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 41' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Sam Kersten made 6 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 43' SC Heerenveen manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Luca Oyen is hanging Maxence Rivera on the field on 43 minute.
- 48' It looks surprising SC Heerenveen does not make any changes. Lance Duijvestijn has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 53' SC Heerenveen is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 58' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering SC Heerenveen that had 358 games and scored 297 goals.
- 63' It looks like no one’s ball. SC Heerenveen is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 68' 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 Jacob Trenskow suffering a number of foals already.
- 69' Another substitution for SC Heerenveen to replace Lasse Nordas by Dylan Vente on 69 minute.
- 70' Another change for Fortuna Sittard made on 70 minute. Philip Brittijn leaves to be changed by Yassin Oukili.
- 74' SC Heerenveen is taking the lead after the goal scored by Marcus Linday on 74.
- 79' The supporters are chanting for Kristoffer Peterson. He replaces Jasper Dahlhaus on 79 minute.

- 90' It’s a booking for Fortuna Sittard player. Ivo Pinto gets a card.
- The final score is 2-1.
