Match Events

0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Club Atletico de Madrid and Bayer 04 Leverkusen has kicked off!
5' It’s high time Diego Simeone made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Club Atletico de Madrid that had 523 games and scored 611 goals.
15' 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.
20' It looks like no one’s ball. Club Atletico de Madrid is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
25' It’s gonna be a card for Pablo Barrios.
30' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Piero Hincapie made 170 appearances and scored 8 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
35' Club Atletico de Madrid started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 35.
40' 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 Granit Xhaka suffering a number of foals already.
44' The referee shows Bayer 04 Leverkusen player a card on 44.
