Events
Match Events
- 0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. AS Cittadella is hosting AC Cesena for another epic battle.
- 5' AC Cesena is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 10' AC Cesena started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 10.
- 15' 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 Jonathan Klinsmann suffering a number of foals already.
- 20' It looks surprising AS Cittadella does not make any changes. Lorenzo Carissoni has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 25' The travelling AC Cesena supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 30' AS Cittadella is showing some good football. However, AS Cittadella are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 33' The referee calls foul for Andrea Ciofi. He receives a card.
- 38' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 43' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 48' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering AC Cesena that had 76 games and scored 51 goals.
- 53' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 53 minutes.
- 58' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Simone Pieraccini made 76 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 60' GOAL! Simone Bastoni scores on 60.
- 65' That looks like a foul for a card for Alessandro Salvi.
- 67' GOAL! Cristian Shpendi scores on 67.
- 68' The whistle greets Simone Rabbi as he departs to be replaced by Mario Ravasio.
- 69' AC Cesena manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Simone Pieraccini is hanging Andrea Ciofi on the field on 69 minute.
- 74' It’s high time Michele Mignani made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 79' It looks like no one’s ball. AC Cesena is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 80' Joseph Ceesay has so much to prove this time. He replaces Simone Bastoni on 80 minute.
- 84' AS Cittadella manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Davide Voltan is hanging Simone Tronchin on the field on 84 minute.
- 86' Matteo Francesconi has so much to prove this time. He replaces Tommaso Berti on 86 minute.
- 87' Alessio Rizza is replacing Edoardo Masciangelo for the AS Cittadella side.
