Events

Match Events

0' In just a few seconds Signal Iduna Park will turn into a battlefield for Borussia Dortmund and Sporting Clube de Portugal.
5' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
10' Goncalo Inacio has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 12 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
15' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
20' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
25' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Afonso Moreira made 505 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
30' It looks like no one’s ball. Sporting Clube de Portugal is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
35' Borussia Dortmund 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.
40' Zeno Debast is ready to make an impact after coming on for Joao Simoes at the 40 minute mark.
45' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Borussia Dortmund and Sporting Clube de Portugal are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
46' Borussia Dortmund ring the changes. Jamie Bynoe-Gittens has done his job and it is now time for Maximilian Beier to step up.
51' A quiet spell here at Signal Iduna Park. Borussia Dortmund seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
56' Another change for Sporting Clube de Portugal made on 56 minute. Goncalo Inacio leaves to be changed by Afonso Moreira.
61' Sporting Clube de Portugal fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
66' named a 4-2-3-1 earlier, and opted for a 3-4-2-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
69' Gio Reyna gets the nod from Borussia Dortmund. He replaces Julian Brandt and will look to change the dynamic.
74' The referee shows Borussia Dortmund player a card on 74.
79' Borussia Dortmund started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 79.
84' Lucas Anjos has so much to prove this time. He replaces Geovany Quenda on 84 minute.
89' The Borussia Dortmund bench stirs into life. Karim Adeyemi is withdrawn and Ramy Bensebaini gets his opportunity.
Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 0-0 draw is a fair result on the day.
