Match Events
- 0' The game is set. VVV Venlo kicks off things out of here…
- 5' VVV Venlo is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Timo Letschert made 306 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 15' What a strike from Jesper Karlsson! The score is 0-1.
- 20' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 23' Owen Wijndal was booked on 23.
- 24' Goal! Christos Donis scores his 1 goal in 171 matches.
- 29' AZ started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 29.
- 34' VVV Venlo is showing some good football. However, VVV Venlo are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 39' 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.
- 44' It looks like no one’s ball. VVV Venlo is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 49' The travelling AZ supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 54' 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 Arjan Swinkels suffering a number of foals already.
- 56' GOAL! Hakon Evjen scores on 56.
- 58' That looks like a foul for a Red card for Chris Kum.
- 60' The whistle greets Christos Donis as he departs to be replaced by Kristopher da Graca.
- 64' Goal! Myron Boadu scores his 52 goal in 288 matches.
- 69' VVV Venlo 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.
- 70' Steffen Schafer is replacing Leon Guwara for the VVV Venlo side.
- 75' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 80' Kenzo Goudmijn needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 83' AZ manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Kenzo Goudmijn is hanging Hakon Evjen on the field on 83 minute.
- 85' What a strike from Myron Boadu! The score is 1-4.
- 87' Dani de Wit is replacing Jesper Karlsson for the AZ side.
- With this win, AZ is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
