- 0' We are underway at AEK Arena. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Henrik Dalsgaard made 344 appearances and scored 7 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 9' What a strike from Victor Olatunji! The score is 1-0.
- 12' What an equalizer from Henrik Dalsgaard!
- 17' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 22' 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 Chris Kouakou suffering a number of foals already.
- 27' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 27 minutes.
- 32' AEK Larnaka started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 32.
- 37' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 42' AEK Larnaka is showing some good football. However, AEK Larnaka are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 46' The FC Midtjylland manager makes a substitution. Edward Chilufya departs to be replaced by Pione Sisto.
- 51' Imad Faraj has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 12 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 56' AEK Larnaka 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.
- 59' The referee calls foul for Raphael Nwadike. He receives a Yellow card.
- 60' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Raphael Nwadike.
- 65' Omri Altman is replacing Imad Faraj for the AEK Larnaka side.
- 69' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Juninho.
- 73' The whistle greets Juninho as he departs to be replaced by Mads Thychosen.
- 78' Roberto Rosales was booked on 78.
- 83' The FC Midtjylland manager makes a substitution. Gustav Isaksen departs to be replaced by Sory Kaba.
- 84' Time for substitution for FC Midtjylland. Charles Matos is replaced by Oliver Sorensen.
- 88' Another substitution for AEK Larnaka to replace Roberto Rosales by Kypros Christoforou on 88 minute.
- Another three points for FC Midtjylland.
