Events

Match Events

0' Welcome to that hosts another battle between Real Sociedad de Fútbol and Athletic Club.
5' The travelling Athletic Club supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
10' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
15' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
20' Over 20 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
25' Alex Remiro has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
30' The 28-year-old Aihen Munoz has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
35' Mikel Oiarzabal, a Spain , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
40' Athletic Club is showing some good football. However, Athletic Club are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
45' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Real Sociedad de Fútbol and Athletic Club are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
46' Athletic Club make a change. Kenan Kodro trudges off to be replaced by Muniain on 46 minutes.
51' 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 Ander Guevara suffering a number of foals already.
55' Real Sociedad de Futbol manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Alexander Isak is hanging Willian Jose on the field on 55 minute.

62' A change in the Athletic Club ranks — Benat exits the field as Dani Garcia enters on 62.
63' The referee has no hesitation. Ander Capa is booked for Athletic Club — Yellow card on 63.
65' GOAL! Portu scores on 65. Assisted by Alexander Isak
70' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
71' Inaki Williams is having a superb {COMPETITION} campaign — that is 0 goals this season for the .
76' Athletic Club are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
77' Another substitution for Real Sociedad de Futbol to replace Ander Guevara by Aritz Elustondo on 77 minute.
81' Athletic Club receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 81.
83' Alexander Isak makes no mistake. The score reads 0-3 and Real Sociedad de Futbol are in front.
88' Ibai has been relatively quiet despite scoring 6 goals in his last 267 appearances.
