Events

Match Events

  • 0' Welcome to BMO Field that hosts another battle between Germany and Ivory Coast.
  • 5' Germany started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 5.
  • 10' It looks surprising Ivory Coast does not make any changes. Ibrahim Sangare has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 15' The travelling Ivory Coast supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 20' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Germany that had 164 games and scored 48 goals.
  • 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' Franck Kessie puts Ivory Coast on the lead.
  • 35' Jonathan Tah needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 40' 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.
  • 45' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 46' Antonio Rudiger has so much to prove this time. He replaces Nico Schlotterbeck on 46 minute.
  • 51' Supporters expect more eagerness from Jamal Musiala, as he is very good at scoring at BMO Field with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 56' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 60' Another substitution for Germany to replace Jamal Musiala by Deniz Undav on 60 minute.
  • 65' Ivory Coast is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 68' GOAL! Deniz Undav scores on 68. Assisted by Nadiem Amiri
  • 73' Ivory Coast is showing some good football. However, Ivory Coast are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 75' The supporters are chanting for Seko Fofana. He replaces Ibrahim Sangare on 75 minute.
  • 80' 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 Seko Fofana suffering a number of foals already.
  • 85' The whistle greets Yan Diomande as he departs to be replaced by Nicolas Pepe.
  • 90' Nico Schlotterbeck has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 49 appearances with only 2 goals this season.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Germany players.
