Events
Match Events
- 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against FK Dinamo Makhachkala and FK Rostov has kicked off!
- 5' 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.
- 10' El Mehdi El Moubarik has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 3 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 15' Houssem Mrezigue needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 2 Yellow cards this season.
- 20' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FK Dinamo Makhachkala that had 221 games and scored 46 goals.
- 22' FK Dinamo Makhachkala receives a card for a hard tackle on 22.
- 27' FK Rostov started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 27.
- 28' FK Dinamo Makhachkala is taking the lead after the goal scored by Jan Dapo on 28.
- 30' Jan Dapo with the second goal in the match!
- 35' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. FK Dinamo Makhachkala needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 40' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 45' It looks like no one’s ball. FK Rostov is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 50' 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 Dmitriy Chistyakov suffering a number of foals already.
- 55' It looks surprising FK Rostov does not make any changes. Mutalip Alibekov has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 60' GOAL! Gamid Agalarov scores on 60.
- 65' FK Rostov 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.
- 70' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 74' A meaty challenge results in booking for Viktor Melekhin on 74.
- 76' What a strike from Ronaldo! The score is 3-1.
- 81' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 81 minutes.
- 86' FK Rostov is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 90' A meaty challenge results in booking for Timur Suleimanov on 90.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for FK Rostov players.
