Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds will turn into a battlefield for Kuopion PS and FK Vitebsk.
  • 5' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FK Vitebsk that had 2 games and scored 2 goals.
  • 15' 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.
  • 20' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 20 minutes.
  • 25' 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 Kalle Taimi suffering a number of foals already.
  • 30' It looks like no one’s ball. Kuopion PS is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 35' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ville Saxman made 51 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

  • 45' Rangel has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 4 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 47' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Wanderson.
  • 52' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 57' Kuopion PS 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.
  • 59' It’s a booking for FK Vitebsk player. Artem Stargorodskiy gets a Yellow card.
  • 59' It is a substitution in FK Vitebsk team. Artem Stargorodskiy is replaced by Anton Matveenko on 59 minute.
