Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Merck-Stadion am Bollenfalltor. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' It’s high time Gerhard Struber made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 10' Kilian Corredor needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 6 Yellow cards this season.
  • 11' SV Darmstadt 98 is taking the lead after the goal scored by Fraser Hornby on 11.
  • 16' Supporters expect more eagerness from Leart Paqarada, as he is very good at scoring at Merck-Stadion am Bollenfalltor with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 21' 1. FC Koln 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.
  • 26' SV Darmstadt 98 started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 26.
  • 31' Sargis Adamyan has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 36' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.

  • 51' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 51 minutes.
  • 54' What a strike from Isac Lidberg! The score is 3-1.
  • 59' 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 Gian-Luca Waldschmidt suffering a number of foals already.
  • 61' Fynn-Luca Lakenmacher has so much to prove this time. He replaces Fraser Hornby on 61 minute.
  • 62' The 1. FC Koln manager makes a substitution. Rasmus Carstensen departs to be replaced by Jan Thielmann.

  • 76' 1. FC Koln manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Sargis Adamyan is hanging Damion Downs on the field on 76 minute.
  • 77' Marco Thiede has so much to prove this time. He replaces Sergio Lopez Galache on 77 minute.
  • 82' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
