Events
Match Events
- 0' Three points are at stake. CD Leganes host Villarreal CF — let the battle begin!
- 5' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 10' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 15' Alvaro Gonzalez, a Spain , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 20' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 20 minutes.
- 25' CD Leganes are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 27' A moment of madness from Jonathan Silva on 27 minutes earns him a Yellow card. CD Leganes will be frustrated.
- 32' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 37' Gerard Moreno is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for CD Leganes so far.
- 42' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 45' Villarreal CF player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 46' Dani Raba makes way for Pablo Fornals at the 46 minute mark. A tactical switch from Villarreal CF.
- 48' The referee calls foul for Mario Gaspar. He receives a Yellow card.
- 53' Villarreal CF have won 559 goals from 410 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 58' It looks surprising CD Leganes does not make any changes. Bustinza has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 60' Villarreal CF ring the changes. Karl Toko Ekambi has done his job and it is now time for Carlos Bacca to step up.
- 62' CD Leganes make a change. Eraso trudges off to be replaced by Michael Santos on 62 minutes.

- 70' The energy levels are beginning to show. Mauricio Pellegrino might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 73' Oscar is ready to make an impact after coming on for Diego Rolan at the 73 minute mark.
- 78' 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 Dimitrios Siovas suffering a number of foals already.
- 82' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Ruben Perez.
- 85' Allan Nyom makes way for Juanfran at the 85 minute mark. A tactical switch from CD Leganes.
