Events
Match Events
- 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Senegal and Colombia get this one started.
- 5' 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.
- 10' Colombia is showing some good football. However, Colombia are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 15' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 20' Idrissa Gana Gueye has been relatively quiet despite scoring 11 goals in his last 319 appearances.
- 25' 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 Radamel Falcao suffering a number of foals already.
- 30' Jefferson Lerma has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 31' The Colombia manager makes a substitution. James Rodriguez departs to be replaced by Luis Muriel.
- 36' Supporters expect more eagerness from Juan Cuadrado, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 41' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 45' Controversy at the stadium! Johan Mojica argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- 50' Senegal started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 50.
- 51' The referee calls foul for Mbaye Niang. He receives a Yellow card.
- 56' Senegal currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 61' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Aliou Cisse will be considering his options from the bench.
- 66' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 71' Yerry Mina, a Colombia , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 74' A goal from the Colombia international Yerry Mina! He fires home on 74 to make it 0-1!
- 74' Moussa Wague is ready to make an impact after coming on for Youssouf Sabaly at the 74 minute mark.
- 79' Colombia international Santiago Arias has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 80' Another change for Senegal made on 80 minute. Keita Balde leaves to be changed by Moussa Konate.
- 83' Mateus Uribe makes way for Jefferson Lerma at the 83 minute mark. A tactical switch from Colombia.
- 86' The Senegal manager makes a substitution. Mbaye Niang departs to be replaced by Diafra Sakho.
- 89' Miguel Borja is replacing Radamel Falcao for the Colombia side.
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 0-1.
