Events

Match Events

  • 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at MDCC-Arena!
  • 5' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 10' 1. FC Magdeburg looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Emmanuel Iyoha scoring 2 goals.
  • 12' Against the run of play, Emmanuel Iyoha has scored! This game has turned on its head.
  • 16' Assisted by Daniel Heber with the perfectly-timed delivery and Alexander Nollenberger makes no mistake. 2-0!
  • 21' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Maxwell Gyamfi made 342 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 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' Baris Atik makes no mistake. The score reads 3-0 and 1. FC Magdeburg are in front.
  • 36' The home supporters are growing impatient. 1. FC Magdeburg must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 41' It looks like no one’s ball. 1. FC Magdeburg is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 46' Fresh legs for 1. FC Kaiserslautern! Mario Sauer comes on to replace Marlon Ritter.
  • 51' 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 Jan Elvedi suffering a number of foals already.
  • 53' Emmanuel Iyoha doubles the advantage! 4-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 58' 1. FC Kaiserslautern come into this ranked 5 in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 61' The supporters are chanting for Mika Haas. He replaces Alex Murphy on 61 minute.
  • 65' That is a card for 1. FC Kaiserslautern. Maxwell Gyamfi will be fuming at that decision.

  • 71' 1. FC Kaiserslautern manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Ibrahim Kanate is hanging Thierry Fidjeu-Tazemeta on the field on 71 minute.
  • 71' Anselmo MacNulty is having his name booked by the referee on 71.
  • 73' A tactical swap from 1. FC Magdeburg — Torben Musel on, Moritz-Broni Kwarteng off on 73 minutes.
  • 78' It looks surprising 1. FC Kaiserslautern does not make any changes. Falko Michel has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 80' A change in the 1. FC Magdeburg ranks — Emmanuel Iyoha exits the field as Magnus Baars enters on 80.
  • 85' The supporters are chanting for Paul Jaeckel. He replaces Luka Hyrylainen on 85 minute.
