Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. AIK Fotboll kicks off things out of here…
- 5' AIK Fotboll fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 10' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Rikard Norling will be considering his options from the bench.
- 15' Celtic FC is showing some good football. However, Celtic FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 20' Both keepers have barely been tested. Celtic FC and AIK Fotboll are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 25' 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 Christopher Jullien suffering a number of foals already.
- 30' With 0 assists to his name this season, Michael Johnston is clearly more than just a goal scorer for AIK Fotboll.
- 35' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 38' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Sebastian Larsson.
- 43' AIK Fotboll are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 44' The referee shows Celtic FC player a Yellow card on 44.
- 48' James Forrest puts Celtic FC on the lead.
- 53' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Celtic FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 58' Anton Saletros, a Sweden , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 63' AIK Fotboll come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 68' Ryan Christie has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 70' Anton Saletros is ready to make an impact after coming on for Nabil Bahoui at the 70 minute mark.
- 72' AIK Fotboll manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Chinedu Obasi is hanging Kolbeinn Sigthorsson on the field on 72 minute.
- 73' A stunning finish from Odsonne Edouard — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 74' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Robert Lundstrom on 74 minutes.
- 79' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Celtic FC that had 426 games and scored 822 goals.
- 82' The Celtic FC bench stirs into life. James Forrest is withdrawn and Jules Ntcham gets his opportunity.
- 84' Vakoun Issouf Bayo gets the nod from Celtic FC. He replaces Odsonne Edouard and will look to change the dynamic.
- 85' Odsonne Edouard makes way for Vakoun Issouf Bayo at the 85 minute mark. A tactical switch from Celtic FC.
- 87' A tactical swap from AIK Fotboll — Heradi Rashidi on, Robert Lundstrom off on 87 minutes.
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 2-0.
