Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: 1. FC Union Berlin gets underway.
- 5' SC Freiburg are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 10' Timo Baumgartl needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 15' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 20' With 1 assists to his name this season, Roland Sallai is clearly more than just a goal scorer for SC Freiburg.
- 25' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 30' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 35' SC Freiburg player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 40' Germany international Nils Petersen has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 45' The travelling SC Freiburg supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 50' 1. FC Union Berlin are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined SC Freiburg backline.
- 55' Taiwo Awoniyi has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 60' SC Freiburg 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.
- 65' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 65 minutes.
- 70' 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 Keven Schlotterbeck suffering a number of foals already.
- 72' Fresh legs for 1. FC Union Berlin! Kevin Behrens comes on to replace Taiwo Awoniyi.
- 77' The SC Freiburg manager makes a substitution. Vincenzo Grifo departs to be replaced by Roland Sallai.
- 77' Sheraldo Becker catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 77.
- 78' Sheraldo Becker was booked on 78.
- 83' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 86' A change in the 1. FC Union Berlin ranks — Sheraldo Becker exits the field as Andreas Voglsammer enters on 86.
- 89' Nils Petersen gets the nod from SC Freiburg. He replaces Lucas Holer and will look to change the dynamic.
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 0-0.
