Events

Match Events

  • 6' GOAL! Stefano Marino scores on 6. Assisted by Mattes Hansen
  • 11' SC Paderborn 07 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.
  • 14' Sergio Lopez Galache was booked on 14.
  • 19' SC Paderborn 07 started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 19.
  • 24' Niklas Schmidt needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 29' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 29 minutes.
  • 34' Kilian Corredor has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 39' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Santiago Castaneda made 145 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 44' 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.
  • 45' A meaty challenge results in booking for Mika Baur on 45.
  • 50' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 55' Ruben Muller is having his name booked by the referee on 55.

  • 74' A meaty challenge results in booking for Aleksandar Vukotic on 74.
  • 79' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 84' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

  • 89' Goal! Sven Michel scores his 27 goal in 316 matches.
  • With this win, SC Paderborn 07 is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
