Events
Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds MetLife Stadium will turn into a battlefield for Real Madrid CF and Borussia Dortmund.
- 5' Pascal Gross needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 10' Gonzalo Garcia puts Real Madrid CF on the lead.
- 15' 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.
- 20' Goal! Fran Garcia scores his 1 goal in 528 matches.
- 25' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Karim Adeyemi made 222 appearances and scored 17 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 30' Real Madrid CF looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Arda Guler scoring 1 goals.
- 35' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Borussia Dortmund needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 37' It’s gonna be a card for Pascal Gross.
- 42' It looks like no one’s ball. Real Madrid CF is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 46' Another substitution for Borussia Dortmund to replace Pascal Gross by Felix Kalu Nmecha on 46 minute.
- 51' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 51 minutes.
- 56' 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 Sehrou Guirassy suffering a number of foals already.
- 61' 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.
- 63' That looks like a foul for a card for Yan Couto.
- 63' Another change for Borussia Dortmund made on 63 minute. Julian Brandt leaves to be changed by Julien Duranville.
- 67' Another change for Real Madrid CF made on 67 minute. Trent Alexander-Arnold leaves to be changed by Dani Ceballos.
- 72' Gregor Kobel has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 33 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 77' Real Madrid CF 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.
- 81' Borussia Dortmund manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Carney Chukwuemeka is hanging Julien Duranville on the field on 81 minute.
- 85' Time for substitution for Real Madrid CF. Aurelien Tchouameni is replaced by Raul.
- 86' The supporters are chanting for Rodrygo. He replaces Gonzalo Garcia on 86 minute.
- 90' Dean Huijsen is having his name booked by the referee on 90.
