Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Palermo FC gets underway.
- 5' Niccolo Pierozzi has been relatively quiet despite scoring 3 goals in his last 467 appearances.
- 6' Assisted by Costantino Favasuli with the perfectly-timed delivery and Giulio Maggiore makes no mistake. 1-0!
- 11' A quiet spell here at San Nicola. SSC Bari seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 16' named a 3-5-2 earlier, and opted for a 3-4-2-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
- 18' Joel Pohjanpalo is having a superb {COMPETITION} campaign — that is 2 goals this season for the .
- 23' The travelling Palermo FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 28' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Giangiacomo Magnani made 395 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 33' Over 33 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 38' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Moreno Longo will be considering his options from the bench.
- 43' 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 Kevin Lasagna suffering a number of foals already.
- 48' Giangiacomo Magnani has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 48.
- 52' Costantino Favasuli is having his name booked by the referee on 52.
- 57' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 62' The energy levels are beginning to show. Alessio Dionisi might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 67' SSC Bari currently sit 9 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 72' SSC Bari are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Palermo FC backline.
- 73' SSC Bari ring the changes. Kevin Lasagna has done his job and it is now time for Nicholas Bonfanti to step up.
- 78' Supporters expect more eagerness from Raffaele Maiello, as he is very good at scoring at San Nicola with 2 goals in the last 2 games.
- 79' It is a substitution in Palermo FC team. Matteo Brunori Sandri is replaced by Roberto Insigne on 79 minute.
- 81' Andrea Oliveri is ready to make an impact after coming on for Mattia Maita at the 81 minute mark.
- 84' A moment of madness from Kristoffer Lund on 84 minutes earns him a card. Palermo FC will be frustrated.
- 87' The Palermo FC manager makes a substitution. Niccolo Pierozzi departs to be replaced by Salim Diakite.
- 89' Lorenco Simic adds to his 0 season tally! SSC Bari lead 2-1 — and this changes everything.
