Events
Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for FC Midtjylland to score. At the same time, FK Crvena Zvezda does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 5' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 10' 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 Pione Sisto suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' 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.
- 20' 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.
- 25' FC Midtjylland started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 25.
- 30' Evander has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 18 appearances with only 7 goals this season.
- 35' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FK Crvena Zvezda that had 245 games and scored 139 goals.
- 39' FK Crvena Zvezda player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 44' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 46' The whistle greets Slavoljub Srnic as he departs to be replaced by Nenad Krsticic.
- 51' FC Midtjylland is showing some good football. However, FC Midtjylland are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 56' The whistle greets Filippo Falco as he departs to be replaced by Lois Diony.
- 57' The referee calls foul for Jens Cajuste. He receives a Yellow card.
- 58' Goal! Mirko Ivanic scores his 13 goal in 125 matches.
- 62' Time for substitution for FC Midtjylland. Jens Cajuste is replaced by Victor Lind.

- 72' Supporters expect more eagerness from Paulinho, as he is very good at scoring at MCH Arena with 2 goals in the last 1 games.
- 73' It is a substitution in FC Midtjylland team. Gustav Isaksen is replaced by Marrony on 73 minute.
- 78' What a strike from Nikolas Dyhr! The score is 1-1.
- 81' The FK Crvena Zvezda manager makes a substitution. Guelor Kanga departs to be replaced by Radovan Pankov.
- 83' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Mirko Ivanic.
- 88' It looks surprising FK Crvena Zvezda does not make any changes. Aleksandar Dragovic has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 90' The whistle greets Nikolas Dyhr as he departs to be replaced by Awer Mabil.
- The final score is 1-1.
