Events

  • 0' Welcome to Stadio Carlo Castellani that hosts another battle between Empoli FC and Atalanta BC.
  • 5' Magnificent from Gianluca Scamacca! That is 54 goals in 232 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 10' Atalanta BC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 15' named a 4-3-3 earlier, and opted for a 3-4-1-2 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 20' Empoli FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 25' Atalanta BC have won 714 goals from 525 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 29' Teun Koopmeiners makes no mistake. The score reads 0-2 and Atalanta BC are in front.
  • 33' That is a Yellow card for Empoli FC. Youssef Maleh will be fuming at that decision.
  • 35' Liberato Cacace catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 35.
  • 40' Empoli FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Atalanta BC backline.
  • 45' 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.
  • 46' Atalanta BC make a change. Giorgio Scalvini trudges off to be replaced by Rafael Toloi on 46 minutes.
  • 51' Gianluca Scamacca adds to his 0 season tally! Atalanta BC lead 0-3 — and this changes everything.
  • 56' It looks surprising Empoli FC does not make any changes. Nicolo Cambiaghi has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 61' Atalanta BC is showing some good football. However, Atalanta BC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 63' Empoli FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Emmanuel Gyasi is hanging Nicolo Cambiaghi on the field on 63 minute.
  • 65' A tactical swap from Atalanta BC — Charles De Ketelaere on, Gianluca Scamacca off on 65 minutes.
  • 66' Atalanta BC ring the changes. Teun Koopmeiners has done his job and it is now time for Mario Pasalic to step up.
  • 69' That is a Yellow card for Empoli FC. Emmanuel Gyasi will be fuming at that decision.
  • 74' 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 Charles De Ketelaere suffering a number of foals already.
  • 75' Fresh legs for Empoli FC! Daniel Maldini comes on to replace Matteo Cancellieri.
  • 76' A tactical swap from Atalanta BC — Luis Muriel on, Ademola Lookman off on 76 minutes.
  • 81' Albania international Berat Djimsiti has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 82' Simone Bastoni is replacing Razvan Marin for the Empoli FC side.
  • 85' Jacopo Fazzini picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 86' Another change for Atalanta BC made on 86 minute. Matteo Ruggeri leaves to be changed by Mitchel Bakker.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Atalanta BC players.
