Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds Stadio Olimpico, Rome will turn into a battlefield for AS Roma and Sporting Clube de Braga.
  • 5' Sporting Clube de Braga is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 10' Lorenzo Pellegrini puts AS Roma on the lead.
  • 15' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 20' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 20 minutes.
  • 25' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 30' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 32' Roger Fernandes is having his name booked by the referee on 32.
  • 37' Gabriel Martinez has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 48 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
  • 42' 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 Evan N'Dicka suffering a number of foals already.
  • 46' Time for substitution for AS Roma. Paulo Dybala is replaced by Artem Dovbyk.
  • 47' GOAL! Saud Abdulhamid scores on 47. Assisted by Kouadio Kone
  • 50' The referee shows Sporting Clube de Braga player a card on 50.
  • 55' It’s high time Claudio Ranieri made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 56' Rodrigo Zalazar has so much to prove this time. He replaces Joao Moutinho on 56 minute.
  • 61' It looks surprising Sporting Clube de Braga does not make any changes. Joao Ferreira has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 66' AS Roma is showing some good football. However, AS Roma are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 68' Matheus Magalhaes is having his name booked by the referee on 68.
  • 70' Time for substitution for Sporting Clube de Braga. Ismael Gharbi is replaced by Lukas Hornicek.
  • 73' AS Roma player sees a card in front of him.
  • 73' AS Roma manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Alexis Saelemaekers is hanging Lorenzo Pellegrini on the field on 73 minute.
  • 74' Stephan El Shaarawy is replacing Matias Soule for the AS Roma side.
  • 79' 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.
  • 84' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 85' AS Roma manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Enzo Le Fee is hanging Niccolo Pisilli on the field on 85 minute.
  • 87' The whistle greets Amine El Ouazzani as he departs to be replaced by Roberto Fernandez.
  • The final score is 3-0.
