Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. UC Sampdoria kicks off things out of here…

  • 51' Fabio Quagliarella has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 56' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

  • 81' Cristiano Biraghi is having his name booked by the referee on 81.
  • 82' A moment of madness from Albin Ekdal on 82 minutes earns him a Yellow card. UC Sampdoria will be frustrated.
