Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Arminia Bielefeld gets underway.
- 5' Noah-Joel Sarenren-Bazee needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 10' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with Arminia Bielefeld winning 50% of all matches.
- 11' Goal! Robin Knoche scores his 19 goal in 471 matches.
- 16' Arminia Bielefeld 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.
- 18' GOAL! Louey Ben Farhat scores on 18. Assisted by Marvin Wanitzek
- 23' It’s high time Christian Eichner made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 28' It looks like no one’s ball. Arminia Bielefeld is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 33' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Karlsruher SC that had 262 games and scored 176 goals.
- 38' 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 Isaiah Young suffering a number of foals already.
- 43' It looks surprising Karlsruher SC does not make any changes. Mael Corboz has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 45' It’s a booking for Karlsruher SC player. Christoph Kobald gets a card.
