Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Celtic FC gets underway.
- 5' 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.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jozo Simunovic made 406 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 15' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 20' AIK Fotboll is showing some good football. However, AIK Fotboll are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 25' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 25 minutes.
- 30' AIK Fotboll 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.
- 35' Kolbeinn Sigþorsson has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 38' It’s a booking for AIK Fotboll player. Sebastian Larsson gets a Yellow card.
- 43' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 44' A meaty challenge results in booking for Boli Bolingoli on 44.
- 48' Celtic FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by James Forrest on 48.
- 53' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 58' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 63' 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 Michael Johnston suffering a number of foals already.
- 68' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 70' Anton Saletros has so much to prove this time. He replaces Nabil Bahoui on 70 minute.
- 72' Time for substitution for AIK Fotboll. Kolbeinn Sigthorsson is replaced by Chinedu Obasi.
- 73' GOAL! Odsonne Edouard scores on 73.
- 74' Robert Lundstrom is having his name booked by the referee on 74.
- 79' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering AIK Fotboll that had 12 games and scored 16 goals.
- 82' Jules Ntcham has so much to prove this time. He replaces James Forrest on 82 minute.
- 84' Time for substitution for Celtic FC. Odsonne Edouard is replaced by Vakoun Issouf Bayo.
- 85' The whistle greets Odsonne Edouard as he departs to be replaced by Vakoun Issouf Bayo.
- 87' AIK Fotboll manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Heradi Rashidi is hanging Robert Lundstrom on the field on 87 minute.
- The final score is 2-0.
