Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. PAE AEK kicks off things out of here…
  • 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 Damian Szymanski suffering a number of foals already.
  • 10' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Brighton & Hove Albion FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 12' It’s gonna be a card for Joel Veltman.

  • 22' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Llazaros Rota made 265 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 27' PAE AEK player sees a card in front of him.

  • 88' Another substitution for Brighton & Hove Albion FC to replace Billy Gilmour by Carlos Baleba on 88 minute.
