Events
Match Events
- 0' Three points are at stake. AS Roma host Athletic Club — let the battle begin!
- 5' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 10' Devyne Rensch has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 8 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 15' Athletic Club 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.
- 19' The referee calls foul for Yeray Alvarez. He receives a card.
- 23' The crowd applauds Daniel Vivian as he leaves the pitch. Aitor Paredes Casamichana steps in for Athletic Club.
- 28' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. AS Roma needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 33' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 33 minutes.
- 34' A meaty challenge results in booking for Mikel Jauregizar on 34.
- 39' That is a card for Athletic Club. Sannadi will be fuming at that decision.
- 44' 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 Mile Svilar suffering a number of foals already.
- 49' AS Roma started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 49.
- 50' What a moment for Inaki Williams! That strike on 50 puts his side firmly in control.

- 71' A quiet spell here at Stadio Olimpico, Rome. AS Roma seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 72' It’s a booking for AS Roma player. Eldor Shomurodov gets a card.
- 77' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Ernesto Valverde will be considering his options from the bench.
