  • 7' Isra Suero doubles the advantage! 1-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 12' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 17' 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 Jozhua Vertrouwd suffering a number of foals already.
  • 22' Jon Morcillo needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 27' Albacete Balompie is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.

  • 37' Juanma Garcia has been relatively quiet despite scoring 5 goals in his last 126 appearances.
  • 38' What a strike from Christian Kofane! The score is 1-2.
  • 43' Albacete Balompie 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.
  • 46' Another change for Albacete Balompie made on 46 minute. Jon Morcillo leaves to be changed by Javier Villar.
  • 51' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 54' CD Castellon manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Jesus De Miguel is hanging Albert Lottin on the field on 54 minute.
  • 59' named a 3-4-3 earlier, and opted for a 4-4-2 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 64' A quiet spell here at Estadio Municipal Castalia. Albacete Balompie seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 66' A change in the Albacete Balompie ranks — Jaume Costa exits the field as Juan Maria enters on 66.

  • 90' The referee calls foul for Jetro Willems. He receives a card.
