Events

Match Events

  • 10' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with UC Sampdoria winning 50% of all matches.
  • 15' Supporters expect more eagerness from Mathis Lambourde, as he is very good at scoring at Stadio Mapei - Citta del Tricolore with 2 goals in the last 2 games.
  • 20' UC Sampdoria started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 20.
  • 25' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 30' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. UC Sampdoria needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 32' That looks like a foul for a card for Fabio Depaoli.
  • 37' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 37 minutes.
  • 42' 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.

  • 75' It’s gonna be a card for Tobias Reinhart.
  • 76' GOAL! Andrij Novakovich scores on 76.
  • 81' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Tobias Reinhart made 114 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
