Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. SD Eibar kicks off things out of here…
- 5' It looks surprising SD Eibar does not make any changes. Aleix Febas has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 10' The travelling SD Eibar supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 15' It looks like no one’s ball. SD Eibar is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 20' Elche CF started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 20.
- 25' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 25 minutes.
- 30' 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 Jorge Pascual suffering a number of foals already.
- 35' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 40' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 45' Goal! Sory Kaba scores his 24 goal in 312 matches.
- 50' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. SD Eibar needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 55' Elche CF seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 59' Alvaro Carrillo is having his name booked by the referee on 59.
- 64' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 65' The supporters are chanting for Xeber Alkain. He replaces Ander on 65 minute.
- 70' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Antonio Puertas made 251 appearances and scored 24 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 72' SD Eibar receives a card for a hard tackle on 72.
- 74' Goal! Nicolas Castro scores his 14 goal in 160 matches.
- 75' The SD Eibar manager makes a substitution. Ivan Gil departs to be replaced by Toni Villa.
- 80' Another substitution for Elche CF to replace Sory Kaba by Mourad El Ghezouani on 80 minute.
- 81' Aitor Galarza has so much to prove this time. He replaces Jorge Pascual on 81 minute.
- 86' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 88' Another change for Elche CF made on 88 minute. Yago Santiago leaves to be changed by Albert Niculaesei.
- With this win, Elche CF is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
