Events

Match Events

  • 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Chennai City FC and Aizawl FC is underway.
  • 5' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Chennai City FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 10' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 15' Chennai City FC 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.
  • 20' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with Aizawl FC winning 100% of all matches.
  • 25' Aizawl FC looks like a favorite considering 2 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Brandon Vanlalremdika scoring 2 goals.
  • 30' 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 Charles Anandraj suffering a number of foals already.
  • 35' It’s high time Yan Cheng Law made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 40' Vineethkumar Velmurugan needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 45' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Brandon Vanlalremdika made 197 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 50' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 55' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 55 minutes.
  • 60' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 65' Aizawl FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 65.
  • 70' Supporters expect more eagerness from Vanlalzuidika, as he is very good at scoring at Kalyani Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 75' It looks surprising Aizawl FC does not make any changes. Shankar Sampingiraj has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 80' It looks like no one’s ball. Chennai City FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 85' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Aizawl FC that had 215 games and scored 52 goals.
  • 90' Chennai City FC is showing some good football. However, Chennai City FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Aizawl FC players.
