Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds San Mames will turn into a battlefield for Athletic Club and Elche CF.
  • 5' Athletic Club currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 10' Elche CF started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 10.
  • 15' The travelling Elche CF supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 20' Juan Sanchez Mino is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Elche CF tonight.
  • 25' Muniain doubles the advantage! 1-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 30' Supporters expect more eagerness from Inaki Williams, as he is very good at scoring at San Mames with 15 goals in the last 13 games.
  • 35' Argentina international Ivan Marcone has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 36' Athletic Club receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 36.
  • 41' It’s high time Jorge Almirón made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 44' Controversy at the stadium! Antonio Barragan argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 46' Elche CF ring the changes. Guido Carrillo has done his job and it is now time for Lucas Boye to step up.
  • 50' Controversy at the stadium! Yuri Berchiche argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 55' Edgar Badia has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 60' Elche CF 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' 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 Yuri Berchiche suffering a number of foals already.
  • 66' The Athletic Club bench stirs into life. Unai Vencedor Paris is withdrawn and Dani Garcia gets his opportunity.
  • 71' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 76' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Athletic Club side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 78' Nino has so much to prove this time. He replaces Raul Guti on 78 minute.
  • 82' Another substitution for Athletic Club to replace Muniain by Inigo Lekue on 82 minute.
  • 87' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 1-0.
