Events

Match Events

  • 0' The wait is over. SK Sturm Graz get us underway at Stade Louis II, Monaco.
  • 5' Over 5 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 10' It looks like no one’s ball. SK Sturm Graz is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 15' Eliot Matazo has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 20' A quiet spell here at Stade Louis II, Monaco. SK Sturm Graz seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 25' AS Monaco FC is showing some good football. However, AS Monaco FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 30' Gelson Martins has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 16 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 32' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Ismail Jakobs.
  • 37' Both keepers have barely been tested. AS Monaco FC and SK Sturm Graz are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 42' SK Sturm Graz are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 46' The supporters are chanting for Caio Henrique. He replaces Ismail Jakobs on 46 minute.
  • 51' AS Monaco FC are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against SK Sturm Graz's shape.

  • 71' Another substitution for SK Puntigamer Sturm Graz to replace Kelvin Yeboah by Anderson Niangbo on 71 minute.
  • 72' Youssouf Fofana is ready to make an impact after coming on for Eliot Matazo at the 72 minute mark.

  • 78' Another change for SK Puntigamer Sturm Graz made on 78 minute. Gregory Wuthrich leaves to be changed by Niklas Geyrhofer.
  • 83' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 88' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Amadou Dante made 147 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 90' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Alexander Prass.
  • Another three points for AS Monaco FC.
