Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds will turn into a battlefield for Eintracht Frankfurt and Chelsea FC.
  • 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Chelsea FC that had 409 games and scored 654 goals.
  • 10' 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.
  • 15' It looks surprising Chelsea FC does not make any changes. Andreas Christensen has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 19' Chelsea FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 19.
  • 23' What a strike from Luka Jovic! The score is 1-0.
  • 28' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 33' 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 Emerson suffering a number of foals already.
  • 38' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 43' Chelsea FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 45' Goal! Pedro scores his 41 goal in 409 matches.
  • 50' It’s high time Maurizio Sarri made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 55' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Chelsea FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 58' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Makoto Hasebe.
  • 61' The referee shows Eintracht Frankfurt player a Yellow card on 61.
  • 61' It is a substitution in Chelsea FC team. Willian is replaced by Eden Hazard on 61 minute.
  • 66' Eintracht Frankfurt started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 66.
  • 71' 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.
  • 73' The supporters are chanting for Goncalo Paciencia. He replaces Gelson Fernandes on 73 minute.
  • 78' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 78 minutes.
  • 83' Chelsea FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Mateo Kovacic is hanging Ruben Loftus-Cheek on the field on 83 minute.
  • 88' Chelsea FC is showing some good football. However, Chelsea FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 90' Time for substitution for Eintracht Frankfurt. Mijat Gacinovic is replaced by Jetro Willems.
  • The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
