Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Poland gets underway.
- 5' Poland is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 10' Poland 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.
- 15' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 20' It looks surprising Argentina does not make any changes. Jakub Kiwior has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 25' Wojciech Szczesny has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 14 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 30' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Enzo Fernandez made 182 appearances and scored 22 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 35' Supporters expect more eagerness from Marcos Acuna, as he is very good at scoring at Stadium 974 with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 40' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Poland needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 45' 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 Krystian Bielik suffering a number of foals already.
- 46' Michal Skoras is replacing Karol Swiderski for the Poland side.
- 46' Goal! Alexis Mac Allister scores his 46 goal in 167 matches.
- 47' What a strike from Alexis Mac Allister! The score is 0-2.
- 49' Marcos Acuna is having his name booked by the referee on 49.
- 54' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 54 minutes.
- 59' The Argentina manager makes a substitution. Angel di Maria departs to be replaced by Leandro Paredes.
- 60' Nicolas Tagliafico has so much to prove this time. He replaces Marcos Acuna on 60 minute.
- 62' Another substitution for Poland to replace Krystian Bielik by Damian Szymanski on 62 minute.
- 67' Goal! Julian Alvarez scores his 93 goal in 182 matches.
- 68' What a strike from Julian Alvarez! The score is 0-4.
- 73' Artur Jedrzejczyk has so much to prove this time. He replaces Bartosz Bereszynski on 73 minute.
- 78' German Pezzella needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 79' The referee shows Poland player a Yellow card on 79.
- 79' Lautaro Martinez is replacing Julian Alvarez for the Argentina side.
- 80' Time for substitution for Argentina. Enzo Fernandez is replaced by German Pezzella.
- 84' The Poland manager makes a substitution. Grzegorz Krychowiak departs to be replaced by Krzysztof Piatek.
- 89' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Argentina players.
