Events
Match Events
- 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Mexico and Poland has kicked off!
- 5' Poland started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 5.
- 10' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 15' Poland fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Henry Martin, as he is very good at scoring at Stadium 974 with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 25' Poland is showing some good football. However, Poland are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 29' A moment of madness from Jorge Sanchez on 29 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Mexico will be frustrated.
- 34' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Mexico and Poland are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 39' It’s high time Gerardo Martino made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 44' 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 Alexis Vega suffering a number of foals already.
- 46' Krystian Bielik is ready to make an impact after coming on for Nicola Zalewski at the 46 minute mark.
- 51' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 56' The referee has no hesitation. Hector Moreno is booked for Mexico — Yellow card on 56.
- 61' Mexico are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Poland backline.
- 66' Krystian Bielik has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 1 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 71' Time for substitution for Mexico. Hector Herrera is replaced by Carlos Rodriguez.
- 72' Przemyslaw Frankowski has so much to prove this time. He replaces Sebastian Szymanski on 72 minute.
- 76' That is a Yellow card for Poland. Przemyslaw Frankowski will be fuming at that decision.
- 81' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 84' Uriel Antuna gets the nod from Mexico. He replaces Alexis Vega and will look to change the dynamic.
- 87' Another substitution for Poland to replace Piotr Zielinski by Arkadiusz Milik on 87 minute.
- 88' Time for substitution for Poland. Piotr Zielinski is replaced by Arkadiusz Milik.
- Game over. The scoreline of 0-0 tells the full story of an entertaining encounter.
