Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Sheriff Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' FC Sheriff Tiraspol started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 5.
  • 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 Momo Yansane suffering a number of foals already.
  • 15' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. GNK Dinamo Zagreb needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 20' Lovro Majer needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 21' Francois Moubandje is replacing Dino Peric for the GNK Dinamo Zagreb side.
  • 26' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering GNK Dinamo Zagreb that had 188 games and scored 141 goals.
  • 31' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 31 minutes.
  • 36' It looks like no one’s ball. GNK Dinamo Zagreb is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 41' 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.
  • 45' Adama Traore puts FC Sheriff Tiraspol on the lead.
  • 46' Adama Traore with the second goal in the match!
  • 51' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 52' Fernando Costanza has so much to prove this time. He replaces Keston Julien on 52 minute.
  • 54' What a strike from Dimitris Kolovos! The score is 3-0.
  • 59' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 64' Another substitution for GNK Dinamo Zagreb to replace Josip Misic by Luka Menalo on 64 minute.
  • 65' It is a substitution in GNK Dinamo Zagreb team. Lovro Majer is replaced by Amer Gojak on 65 minute.
  • 70' It looks surprising FC Sheriff Tiraspol does not make any changes. Edmund Addo has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 75' FC Sheriff Tiraspol 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.
  • 76' A meaty challenge results in booking for Luka Menalo on 76.
  • 80' What a strike from Adama Traore! The score is 4-0.
  • 80' The supporters are chanting for Duje Cop. He replaces Mislav Orsic on 80 minute.
  • 85' Supporters expect more eagerness from Luka Menalo, as he is very good at scoring at Sheriff Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 87' The supporters are chanting for Lovro Bizjak. He replaces Dimitris Kolovos on 87 minute.
  • 90' The whistle greets Luvannor as he departs to be replaced by Stjepan Radeljic.
  • The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for GNK Dinamo Zagreb.
