Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: AIK Fotboll gets underway.
- 5' 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.
- 10' It looks surprising Celtic FC does not make any changes. Robert Lundstrom has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 15' 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.
- 20' Boli Bolingoli needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 25' 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.
- 30' Daniel Granli has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 35' Celtic FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 35.
- 38' Sebastian Larsson is having his name booked by the referee on 38.
- 43' 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.
- 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' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 58' The travelling AIK Fotboll supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 63' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
- 68' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 70' The supporters are chanting for Anton Saletros. He replaces Nabil Bahoui on 70 minute.
- 72' The AIK Fotboll manager makes a substitution. Kolbeinn Sigthorsson departs to be replaced by Chinedu Obasi.
- 73' What a strike from Odsonne Edouard! The score is 2-0.
- 74' The referee shows AIK Fotboll player a Yellow card on 74.
- 79' 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 Kolbeinn Sigþorsson suffering a number of foals already.
- 82' It is a substitution in Celtic FC team. James Forrest is replaced by Jules Ntcham on 82 minute.
- 84' Another change for Celtic FC made on 84 minute. Odsonne Edouard leaves to be changed by Vakoun Issouf Bayo.
- 85' The Celtic FC manager makes a substitution. Odsonne Edouard departs to be replaced by Vakoun Issouf Bayo.
- 87' Heradi Rashidi has so much to prove this time. He replaces Robert Lundstrom on 87 minute.
