Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds Arena Nationala will turn into a battlefield for Austria and North Macedonia.
  • 5' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering North Macedonia that had 4 games and scored 21 goals.
  • 15' It’s high time Igor Angelovski made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 18' Austria is taking the lead after the goal scored by Stefan Lainer on 18.
  • 23' Marcel Sabitzer has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 34 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
  • 28' Goal! Goran Pandev scores his 26 goal in 418 matches.
  • 33' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 38' 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 Konrad Laimer suffering a number of foals already.
  • 42' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Aleksandar Trajkovski.
  • 46' Austria manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Philipp Lienhart is hanging Aleksandar Dragovic on the field on 46 minute.
  • 51' The travelling North Macedonia supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 52' North Macedonia player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 57' It looks like no one’s ball. Austria is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 58' Michael Gregoritsch has so much to prove this time. He replaces Christoph Baumgartner on 58 minute.
  • 59' The Austria manager makes a substitution. Sasa Kalajdzic departs to be replaced by Marko Arnautovic.
  • 63' Tihomir Kostadinov has so much to prove this time. He replaces Aleksandar Trajkovski on 63 minute.
  • 64' Egzon Bejtulai is replacing Boban Nikolov for the North Macedonia side.
  • 69' North Macedonia 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.
  • 74' Austria is showing some good football. However, Austria are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 78' What a strike from Michael Gregoritsch! The score is 2-1.
  • 82' Ivan Trickovski has so much to prove this time. He replaces Enis Bardhi on 82 minute.
  • 85' Austria player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 86' The supporters are chanting for Milan Ristovski. He replaces Visar Musliu on 86 minute.
  • 89' What a strike from Marko Arnautovic! The score is 3-1.
  • 90' GOAL! Marko Arnautovic scores on 90. Assisted by Konrad Laimer
  • 90' Another change for Austria made on 90 minute. Konrad Laimer leaves to be changed by Julian Baumgartlinger.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Austria players.
