Events

Match Events

  • 0' It’s Showtime! The match between FCSB Bukarest and Olympique Lyonnais is underway.

  • 10' 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.
  • 11' FCSB Bukarest receives a card for a hard tackle on 11.
  • 16' Alexandre Lacazette has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 57 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 21' It looks like no one’s ball. FCSB Bukarest is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 26' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.

  • 35' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 40' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Stefan Tarnovanu made 47 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 45' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.

  • 47' FCSB Bukarest player sees a card in front of him.
  • 52' 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 Thiago Almada suffering a number of foals already.
  • 57' It looks surprising Olympique Lyonnais does not make any changes. Corentin Tolisso has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 62' The travelling Olympique Lyonnais supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.

  • 77' It is a substitution in FCSB Bukarest team. Florin Tanase is replaced by Alexandru Musi on 77 minute.
