Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at . The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' PFK Ludogorets 1945 Razgrad have won 140 goals from 186 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 10' PFK Ludogorets 1945 Razgrad are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 15' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 15 minutes.
  • 20' Aleksandar Dragovic needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 25' The travelling PFK Ludogorets 1945 Razgrad supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 30' Over 30 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 34' Bayer 04 Leverkusen manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Julian Baumgartlinger is hanging Panagiotis Retsos on the field on 34 minute.
  • 39' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 44' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 49' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

  • 68' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Heiko Herrlich will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 69' GOAL! Marcelinho fires home to make it 0-1!
  • 71' Controversy at the stadium! Mitchell Weiser argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 73' Bayer 04 Leverkusen ring the changes. Sam Schreck has done his job and it is now time for Kai Havertz to step up.
  • 78' Isaac Thelin has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 4 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 82' Another change for PFK Ludogorets 1945 Razgrad made on 82 minute. Jakub Swierczok leaves to be changed by Anton Nedyalkov.
  • 85' Mitchell Weiser does the damage! The net is bulging and Bayer 04 Leverkusen surge ahead!
  • 89' Dimo Bakalov gets the nod from PFK Ludogorets 1945 Razgrad. He replaces Lucas Sasha and will look to change the dynamic.
