Events

Match Events

  • 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Manchester United FC and Juventus FC is underway.
  • 5' 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 Joao Cancelo suffering a number of foals already.
  • 10' 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.
  • 15' Leonardo Bonucci, a Italy , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 17' Paulo Dybala does the damage! The net is bulging and Juventus FC surge ahead!
  • 22' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 27' It looks surprising Manchester United FC does not make any changes. Blaise Matuidi has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 32' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Manchester United FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 37' The energy levels are beginning to show. José Mourinho might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 42' The travelling Juventus FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 47' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 52' The home supporters are growing impatient. Manchester United FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 57' Marcus Rashford has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 1 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
  • 59' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Blaise Matuidi.
  • 64' It looks like no one’s ball. Juventus FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 69' Juventus FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 69.
  • 74' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 77' Ashley Young catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 77.
  • 78' Federico Bernardeschi has so much to prove this time. He replaces Paulo Dybala on 78 minute.
  • 81' It is a substitution in Juventus FC team. Juan Cuadrado is replaced by Andrea Barzagli on 81 minute.
  • 83' Controversy at the stadium! Giorgio Chiellini argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 87' Another substitution for Juventus FC to replace Joao Cancelo by Douglas Costa on 87 minute.
