Events
Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds Stadio Olimpico, Rome will turn into a battlefield for AS Roma and Helsingin JK.
- 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering AS Roma that had 527 games and scored 607 goals.
- 10' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Helsingin JK needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 13' Helsingin JK player sees a Yellow card in front of him.

- 20' AS Roma is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 23' The Helsingin JK manager makes a substitution. Santeri Hostikka departs to be replaced by Matti Peltola.
- 26' Roger Ibanez was booked on 26.
- 29' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Perparim Hetemaj.
- 34' 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 Bryan Cristante suffering a number of foals already.
- 39' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 39 minutes.
- 44' Helsingin JK started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 44.

- 47' AS Roma is taking the lead after the goal scored by Paulo Dybala on 47.

- 54' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 59' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 60' The referee calls foul for Bryan Cristante. He receives a Yellow card.
- 64' Another change for AS Roma made on 64 minute. Bryan Cristante leaves to be changed by Mohamed Mady Camara.

- 69' The whistle greets Lorenzo Pellegrini as he departs to be replaced by Edoardo Bove.
- 74' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 76' Tammy Abraham has so much to prove this time. He replaces Nicolo Zaniolo on 76 minute.
- 81' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Lucas Lingman made 2 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 86' AS Roma 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.
- 87' The referee shows Helsingin JK player a Yellow card on 87.
- Full Time. AS Roma beats Helsingin JK
