Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: FC Flora gets underway.
- 5' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 10' It looks surprising FC Flora does not make any changes. Robert Veering has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 12' GOAL! Tony Varjund scores on 12. Assisted by Sergei Zenjov
- 17' NK Celje is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 22' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Andreas Vaher made 212 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 27' 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 Aljosa Matko suffering a number of foals already.
- 32' Aljaz Krefl has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 2 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 34' NK Celje receives a card for a hard tackle on 34.
- 39' NK Celje 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.
- 42' NK Celje player sees a card in front of him.
- 46' NK Celje manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Zan Karnicnik is hanging Luka Bobicanec on the field on 46 minute.
- 51' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 51 minutes.
- 56' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 57' Time for substitution for FC Flora. Andreas Vaher is replaced by Mihhail Kolobov.
- 61' NK Celje player sees a card in front of him.
- 66' Supporters expect more eagerness from Marco Dulca, as he is very good at scoring at Stadion Z'dezele with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 67' Marco Dulca is having his name booked by the referee on 67.
- 72' Erko Tougjas needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 73' Goal! Aljosa Matko scores his 2 goal in 105 matches.
- 74' NK Celje manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Rolando Aarons is hanging Aljosa Matko on the field on 74 minute.

- 79' Time for substitution for NK Celje. Aljaz Krefl is replaced by Matija Kavcic.
