Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Arminia Bielefeld kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Felix Hagmann has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 33 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 10' Arminia Bielefeld is showing some good football. However, Arminia Bielefeld are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 15' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Arminia Bielefeld that had 248 games and scored 121 goals.
- 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.
- 27' Goal! Joel Grodowski scores his 2 goal in 2 matches.
- 27' Cajetan Lenz was booked on 27.
- 32' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 37' It’s high time Uwe Rösler made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 42' It looks surprising Arminia Bielefeld does not make any changes. Roberts Uldrikis has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 47' VfL Bochum 1848 started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 47.
- 50' Callum Marshall is having his name booked by the referee on 50.
- 55' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 60' VfL Bochum 1848 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.
- 65' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 70' The travelling VfL Bochum 1848 supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 75' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with VfL Bochum 1848 winning 100% of all matches.
- 79' What a strike from Moritz-Broni Kwarteng! The score is 1-1.
- 84' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 89' 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 Monju Momuluh suffering a number of foals already.
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 1-1.
