Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. 1. FC Nurnberg kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' 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.
  • 8' Goal! Mohamed Ali Zoma scores his 4 goal in 295 matches.
  • 13' It’s high time Michel Kniat made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 18' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with 1. FC Nurnberg winning 50% of all matches.
  • 23' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Berkay Yilmaz made 493 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 25' Rafael Lubach is replacing Mohamed Ali Zoma for the 1. FC Nurnberg side.
  • 30' 1. FC Nurnberg is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 35' The referee calls foul for Javier Fernandez. He receives a card.
  • 40' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 45' Supporters expect more eagerness from Fabio Gruber, as he is very good at scoring at SchucoArena with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 46' Another substitution for 1. FC Nurnberg to replace Adriano Grimaldi by Piet Scobel on 46 minute.
  • 51' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. 1. FC Nurnberg needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 56' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 59' Tom Baack has so much to prove this time. He replaces Julian Justvan on 59 minute.

  • 86' 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 Benjamin Boakye suffering a number of foals already.
  • 90' The referee calls foul for Maximilian Bauer. He receives a card.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 1-1.
