Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: FK Crvena Zvezda gets underway.
  • 5' Mailson needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 10' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 15' FK Crvena Zvezda is showing some good football. However, FK Crvena Zvezda are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 20' 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.
  • 25' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 30' The travelling FK Crvena Zvezda supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 35' 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 Alemao suffering a number of foals already.
  • 40' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Ararat-Armenia that had 11 games and scored 22 goals.
  • 45' 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.
  • 50' It looks surprising FC Ararat-Armenia does not make any changes. Furdjel Narsingh has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 55' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 60' FK Crvena Zvezda is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 65' FC Ararat-Armenia 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.
  • 70' Yoan Gouffran has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 75' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 80' FK Crvena Zvezda started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 80.
  • 85' Supporters expect more eagerness from Milan Rodic, as he is very good at scoring at Yerevan Football Academy with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 90' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. FK Crvena Zvezda needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 1-2.
