Events
Match Events
- 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Deportivo Alaves and FC Barcelona has kicked off!
- 5' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with FC Barcelona winning 100% of all matches.
- 10' 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 Ferran Torres suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 20' 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.
- 25' FC Barcelona are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 30' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 35' Luis Rioja has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 11 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
- 40' FC Barcelona is showing some good football. However, FC Barcelona are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 45' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 50' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Deportivo Alaves that had 279 games and scored 252 goals.
- 55' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Jose Luis Mendilibar will be considering his options from the bench.
- 60' FC Barcelona has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
- 65' Pedri needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 70' Deportivo Alaves currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 71' Nico Gonzalez has so much to prove this time. He replaces Abdessamad Ezzalzouli on 71 minute.
- 72' A tactical swap from FC Barcelona — Nico Gonzalez on, Abdessamad Ezzalzouli off on 72 minutes.
- 77' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 77 minutes.
- 82' Abdessamad Ezzalzouli has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 4 goals to his name this season.
- 84' Time for substitution for FC Barcelona. Luuk de Jong is replaced by Ferran Jutgla.
- 87' Frenkie de Jong doubles the advantage! 0-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 88' Tomas Pina makes way for Toni Moya at the 88 minute mark. A tactical switch from Deportivo Alaves.
- 90' Time for substitution for Deportivo Alaves. Luis Rioja is replaced by Edgar Mendez.
- 90' Jose Luis Mendilibar catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Red card on 90.
- Deportivo Alaves will have plenty to reflect on. FC Barcelona were simply the better side today.
