Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds will turn into a battlefield for CS Fola Esch and FC Prishtina.
  • 5' CS Fola Esch 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.
  • 10' Tom Laterza has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 15' It’s high time made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 20' It looks surprising CS Fola Esch does not make any changes. Gauthier Mankenda has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 21' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Armend Thaqi.
  • 26' 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.
  • 29' The referee calls foul for Mehdi Kirch. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 34' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Prishtina that had 128 games and scored 7 goals.
  • 39' CS Fola Esch started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 39.
  • 44' Argjent Mustafa needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 46' The whistle greets Mehdi Kirch as he departs to be replaced by Cedric Sacras.
  • 51' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 56' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Meriton Korenica made 128 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 61' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 66' FC Prishtina is showing some good football. However, FC Prishtina are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 69' Another substitution for CS Fola Esch to replace Corentin Kocur by Ken Corral on 69 minute.
  • 74' 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 Peter Chrappan suffering a number of foals already.
  • 79' The travelling FC Prishtina supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 81' Another substitution for FC Prishtina to replace Gauthier Mankenda by Mergim Pefqeli on 81 minute.
  • 86' FC Prishtina is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 90' Time for substitution for FC Prishtina. Meriton Korenica is replaced by Abdul Bashiru.
  • The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
