Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Al Bayt Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Josip Juranovic, as he is very good at scoring at Al Bayt Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 10' 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.
  • 15' Croatia 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.
  • 20' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 25' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 30' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Sofyan Amrabat made 351 appearances and scored 5 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 35' Azzedine Ounahi has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
  • 40' 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.
  • 45' Croatia started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 45.
  • 46' The Croatia manager makes a substitution. Nikola Vlasic departs to be replaced by Mario Pasalic.
  • 51' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Croatia needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 56' It looks like no one’s ball. Croatia is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 60' Yahia Attiyat Allah has so much to prove this time. He replaces Noussair Mazraoui on 60 minute.
  • 65' The whistle greets Sofiane Boufal as he departs to be replaced by Abdessamad Ezzalzouli.
  • 70' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 70 minutes.
  • 71' Marko Livaja has so much to prove this time. He replaces Andrej Kramaric on 71 minute.
  • 76' 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 Ivan Perisic suffering a number of foals already.
  • 78' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Sofyan Amrabat.
  • 79' Another change for Croatia made on 79 minute. Mateo Kovacic leaves to be changed by Lovro Majer.
  • 81' The Morocco manager makes a substitution. Youssef En-Nesyri departs to be replaced by Abderrazak Hamdallah.
  • 82' The whistle greets Azzedine Ounahi as he departs to be replaced by Abdelhamid Sabiri.
  • 87' Borna Sosa needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 90' Another change for Croatia made on 90 minute. Ivan Perisic leaves to be changed by Mislav Orsic.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 0-0.
