Events

Match Events

  • 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Deportivo Alaves to score. At the same time, Villarreal CF does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
  • 5' Trigueros, a Spain , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 10' A goal from the Spain international Gerard Moreno! He fires home on 10 to make it 0-1!
  • 15' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Javier Calleja will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 20' Both keepers have barely been tested. Deportivo Alaves and Villarreal CF are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 25' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 27' Ramiro Funes Mori picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 32' 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 Jonathan Calleri suffering a number of foals already.
  • 37' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 42' Jony has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.

  • 51' Magnificent from Jonathan Calleri! That is 62 goals in 267 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
