Events
Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds Sukru Saracoglu will turn into a battlefield for Fenerbahce SK and Athletic Club.
- 5' Inaki Williams has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 5 minutes.
- 7' It’s a booking for Athletic Club player. Yeray Alvarez gets a card.
- 12' Sofyan Amrabat has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 10 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 17' Sebastian Szymanski has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 28 cards already picked up this season.
- 22' Fenerbahce SK is showing some good football. However, Fenerbahce SK are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 27' Fenerbahce SK is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 32' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 37' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 38' Athletic Club make a change. Nico Williams trudges off to be replaced by Alex Berenguer on 38 minutes.
- 43' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 45' Inaki Williams has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 45 minutes.
- 46' Fenerbahce SK manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Caglar Soyuncu is hanging Samet Akaydin on the field on 46 minute.
- 51' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 56' 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 Unai Gomez suffering a number of foals already.
- 57' The referee shows Fenerbahce SK player a card on 57.
- 61' Fenerbahce SK ring the changes. Sebastian Szymanski has done his job and it is now time for Edin Dzeko to step up.

- 67' Athletic Club make a change. Mikel Jauregizar trudges off to be replaced by Benat Prados on 67 minutes.
- 69' It’s a booking for Fenerbahce SK player. Mert Muldur gets a card.
- 72' Cengiz Under is ready to make an impact after coming on for Dusan Tadic at the 72 minute mark.
- 77' The energy levels are beginning to show. Ernesto Valverde might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 80' Athletic Club player sees a card in front of him.
- 85' Mikel Vesga is ready to make an impact after coming on for Inaki Williams at the 85 minute mark.
- 90' Sofyan Amrabat was booked on 90.
