Match report in news

  • 94'
    FT: Vitesse 1-0 Spurs! A deserved victory for the home side courtesy of Wittek's fine strike, and a first ever win against an English club in UEFA competition. In the end a deserved victory for a Vitesse side who seemed to want the three points more than a strangely subdued Spurs. The Arnhemmers grew into the game, created more chances than the visitors, and eventually had the class required to find the net. The Eredivisie side are right back in the mix in Group G.

    GOAL for Vitesse! Dasa crosses to the edge of the area and Wittek brilliantly controls the volley to fire back across Gollini. The home side deserve their breakthrough.

  • 72'
    Sanchez is booked.
  • 72'
    Sanchez concedes a free-kick for a foul on Openda.
  • 69'
    Dasa from 30 metres this time. Plenty of power again and Gollini has to watch it low to his right before making the save.
  • 66'
    Scarlett is penalised for handball.
  • 64'
    Dasa misses the target. Ferocious drive from 25 metres that has Gollini at full stretch but it veers away from the near post.
  • 62'
    Scarlett is adjudged to be in an offside position.
  • 60'
    A couple of semi-promising forays towards the Spurs penalty area and the GelreDome once again comes alive. Despite the lack of goals, the Vitesse fans definitely seem to be in the mood.
  • 56'
    Openda concedes a free-kick for a foul on Sanchez.
  • 54'
    Dasa is penalised for a foul on Bergwijn.
  • 48'
    Corner for Vitesse conceced by Tanganga.
  • 47'
    Winks has an attempt on goal, but Schubert makes a great save.
  • 47'
    Bryan Gil hits the woodwork! Wonderful driving run from Lo Celso before he finds Bryan Gil 20 metres out and the Spanish midfielder curls over Schubert but back off the bar. The first we've seen from the visitors but hopefully a sign of things to come in this half.
  • 47'
    Scarlett is flagged for offside.
  • 46'
    The second half begins. We are back under way in Arnhem!
  • 45'
    HT: Vitesse 0-0 Spurs! Vitesse were the more adventurous of the two sides, and certainly spent a greater amount of time round the Spurs box than the visitors did round theirs, but invariably couldn’t find the final pass or lacked composure when an opportunity arose. The Londoners really have to get creative players like Alli, Bryan Gil and Bergwijn more involved if they want to break the game open.
  • 45'
    1 minute added on!
  • 43'
    Bergwijn has a shot blocked. The Dutchman tries to cut inside and fire at goal but too many bodies back there to find a route inside the far post.

    Winks dallies too long and Vitesse win the ball high up only for Tronstad to fire well over.
  • 31'
    Openda concedes a free-kick for a foul on Tanganga.
  • 28'
    Dasa concedes a free-kick for a foul on Bryan Gil.
  • 26'
    Bero concedes a free-kick for a foul on Bryan Gil.
  • 25'
    Tottenham hogged possession for at least five minutes, but didn’t get anywhere near to worrying Schubert in the Vitesse goal.
  • 23'
    So close! The near-post corner is a beauty and Rasmussen gets the flick, which beats everyone and just flies wide of the far post.
  • 23'
    Corner awarded to Vitesse.
  • 21'
    Frederiksen is penalised for a foul on B. Davies
  • 17'
    Fine full-stretch intervention by Rasmussen to stop the ball reaching Gil out on the right. Spurs had a man over, and were looking threatening.
  • 14'
    Quick volley at goal from the edge of the area from Openda but it is a simple save for Gollini.

    Vitesse show only one change from the team which won the Gelderland derby against NEC 1-0 on Sunday. Bero returns from suspension at the expense of Gboho, who drops to the bench.

    Winks and Lo Celso will be the two deeper-lying midfielders in what looks like a 4-2-3-1 formation. Bergwijn, Alli and Gil are charged with supplying the creativity further up the pitch. Scarlett is the lone striker.
