Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Arsenal FC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' It looks surprising Leicester City FC does not make any changes. James Justin has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 10' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 15' It’s high time Mikel Arteta made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 20' What a strike from Martinelli! The score is 1-0.
  • 21' It’s a booking for Leicester City FC player. Jamie Vardy gets a card.
  • 26' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 31' A meaty challenge results in booking for Wilfred Ndidi on 31.
  • 36' 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.
  • 41' It looks like no one’s ball. Leicester City FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 46' GOAL! Leandro Trossard scores on 45. Assisted by Martinelli
  • 46' That looks like a foul for a card for William Saliba.
  • 47' GOAL! James Justin scores on 47. Assisted by Facundo Buonanotte
  • 49' It’s gonna be a card for Riccardo Calafiori.
  • 50' Oliver Skipp was booked on 50.
  • 55' Leicester City FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 55.
  • 60' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Leicester City FC that had 354 games and scored 510 goals.
  • 63' Goal! James Justin scores his 15 goal in 382 matches.
  • 68' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Stephy Mavididi made 519 appearances and scored 47 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

  • 74' The Arsenal FC manager makes a substitution. Martinelli departs to be replaced by Raheem Sterling.
  • 79' 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.
  • 84' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 84 minutes.
  • 85' Jordan Ayew has so much to prove this time. He replaces Facundo Buonanotte on 85 minute.
  • 90' Bilal El Khannouss has so much to prove this time. He replaces Oliver Skipp on 90 minute.
  • Full Time. Arsenal FC beats Leicester City FC
