Events

Match Events

  • 0' FC Cartagena have kicked off against UD Almeria. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
  • 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Nico Melamed made 293 appearances and scored 14 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 6' A moment of madness from Edgar Gonzalez on 6 minutes earns him a card. UD Almeria will be frustrated.
  • 11' UD Almeria is showing some good football. However, UD Almeria are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.

  • 40' Nikola Sipcic has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.

  • 82' Ortuno is replacing Cedric Teguia for the FC Cartagena side.
  • 83' UD Almeria ring the changes. Marc Pubill has done his job and it is now time for Kaiky to step up.
  • 88' FC Cartagena 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.

  • What a match! Full time at {STADIUM} — FC Cartagena 1-2 UD Almeria.
