Events

Match Events

  • 0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Italy is hosting Austria for another epic battle.
  • 2' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Marko Arnautovic.
  • 7' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 12' It looks like no one’s ball. Italy is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 17' 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.
  • 22' Italy is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 27' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 27 minutes.
  • 32' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Italy needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 37' The travelling Austria supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 42' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 47' 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 Francesco Acerbi suffering a number of foals already.
  • 50' The referee calls foul for Giovanni Di Lorenzo. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 51' The referee shows Italy player a Yellow card on 51.
  • 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.

  • 73' Italy started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 73.
  • 78' It looks surprising Italy does not make any changes. Gianluigi Donnarumma has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 83' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Nicolo Barella made 418 appearances and scored 30 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 84' The supporters are chanting for Andrea Belotti. He replaces Ciro Immobile on 84 minute.
  • 89' Leonardo Bonucci needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
