Events
Match Events
- 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Deportivo Alavés and RC Celta de Vigo has kicked off!
- 5' Over 5 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 10' Supporters expect more eagerness from Wesley Hoedt, as he is very good at scoring at Estadio de Mendizorroza with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 15' The 29-year-old Maxi Gomez has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 20' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Deportivo Alavés and RC Celta de Vigo are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
- 25' A quiet spell here at Estadio de Mendizorroza. Deportivo Alavés seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 30' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Deportivo Alavés that had 267 games and scored 237 goals.
- 35' RC Celta de Vigo come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 40' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 40 minutes.
- 45' Ximo is having his name booked by the referee on 45.
- 50' Deportivo Alavés started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 50.
- 54' That is a Yellow card for RC Celta de Vigo. Okay Yokuslu will be fuming at that decision.
- 59' Poor challenge from Ruben Duarte. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 64' The whistle greets Okay Yokuslu as he departs to be replaced by Francisco Peinado.
- 67' Mathias Jensen makes way for Sofiane Boufal at the 67 minute mark. A tactical switch from RC Celta de Vigo.
- 70' Hugo Mallo catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 70.
- 74' It is a substitution in Deportivo Alaves team. Takashi Inui is replaced by Diego Rolan on 74 minute.
- 75' Mubarak Wakaso has so much to prove this time. He replaces Darko Brasanac on 75 minute.
- 80' The whistle greets Jonathan Calleri as he departs to be replaced by Borja Baston.
- 85' 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 Ximo Navarro suffering a number of foals already.
- 90' Time for substitution for RC Celta de Vigo. Brais Mendez Portela is replaced by Jozabed.
- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 0-0 draw is a fair result on the day.
