Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. KF Valur kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. FC Santa Coloma needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 10' Sebastian Hedlund needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 15' 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 Kristinn Halldorsson suffering a number of foals already.
  • 20' Anton Einarsson has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 25' 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.
  • 30' It looks like no one’s ball. KF Valur is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 35' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Haukur Sigurðsson made 107 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 40' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering KF Valur that had 107 games and scored 27 goals.
  • 43' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Birkir Mar Saevarsson.
  • 44' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Aleix Cistero.
  • 49' FC Santa Coloma is showing some good football. However, FC Santa Coloma are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 52' A meaty challenge results in booking for Juanma Torres on 52.
  • 54' It’s a booking for KF Valur Reykjavik player. Haukur Sigurdsson gets a Yellow card.
  • 58' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Marc Rebes.
  • 61' The whistle greets Albert Mercade as he departs to be replaced by Andre Azevedo.
  • 66' FC Santa Coloma receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 66.
  • 71' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 71 minutes.
  • 72' KF Valur Reykjavik is taking the lead after the goal scored by Bjarni Eiriksson on 72.
  • 72' Time for substitution for FC Santa Coloma. Loren is replaced by Iban Parra.
  • 73' KF Valur Reykjavik manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Gudjon Lydsson is hanging Einar Ingvarsson on the field on 73 minute.
  • 74' Another substitution for KF Valur Reykjavik to replace Sigurdur Larusson by Andri Adolphsson on 74 minute.
  • 79' KF Valur 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.
  • 84' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 86' It is a substitution in FC Santa Coloma team. Yago Perez is replaced by Victor Rodriguez on 86 minute.
  • The final score is 1-0.
