Match Events

  • 0' It’s Showtime! The match between FC København and Kuopion PS is underway.
  • 5' Kuopion PS is showing some good football. However, Kuopion PS are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 10' Nicolai Boilesen has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 4 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 15' FC København 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.
  • 20' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jan Gregus made 105 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 25' The travelling Kuopion PS supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 30' It’s high time Jani Honkavaara made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 35' 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.
  • 40' FC København is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 45' 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 Zeca suffering a number of foals already.
  • 50' Ats Purje needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 51' A meaty challenge results in booking for Lum Rexhepi on 51.
  • 56' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 61' It is a substitution in Kuopion PS team. Rangel is replaced by Rasmus Karjalainen on 61 minute.
  • 66' It looks surprising FC København does not make any changes. Viktor Fischer has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 70' It is a substitution in FC Kobenhavn team. Kenan Kodro is replaced by Robert Skov on 70 minute.
  • 71' Ats Purje is replacing Joni Makela for the Kuopion PS side.
  • 75' GOAL! Rasmus Karjalainen scores on 75. Assisted by Ilmari Niskanen
  • 80' It looks like no one’s ball. Kuopion PS is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 81' GOAL! Denis Vavro scores on 81.
  • 81' Denis Vavro is having his name booked by the referee on 81.
  • 86' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC København that had 105 games and scored 79 goals.
  • 90' Andreas Bjelland has so much to prove this time. He replaces Rasmus Falk on 90 minute.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 1-1.
