Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Estadio de La Cartuja. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Koke, as he is very good at scoring at Estadio de La Cartuja with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 10' It looks like no one’s ball. Slovakia is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 12' It’s a booking for Slovakia player. Ondrej Duda gets a Yellow card.
  • 17' Pau Torres has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 45 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 22' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 27' Spain 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.
  • 30' What a strike from Martin Dubravka! The score is 0-1.
  • 35' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jakub Hromada made 166 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 40' Busquets was booked on 40.
  • 45' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 46' Another substitution for Slovakia to replace Jakub Hromada by Stanislav Lobotka on 46 minute.
  • 48' GOAL! Aymeric Laporte scores on 45. Assisted by Gerard Moreno
  • 53' Spain is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.

  • 77' Adama Traore has so much to prove this time. He replaces Gerard Moreno on 77 minute.
  • 82' Slovakia is showing some good football. However, Slovakia are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 87' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Spain needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 90' Milan Skriniar was booked on 90.
  • 90' Time for substitution for Slovakia. Marek Hamsik is replaced by Laszlo Benes.
  • Full Time. Spain beats Slovakia
