Events

Match Events

  • 0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Spain is hosting Austria for another epic battle.
  • 5' Spain looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Mikel Oyarzabal scoring 2 goals.
  • 10' It looks surprising Austria does not make any changes. Kevin Danso has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 15' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 20' Both keepers have barely been tested. Spain and Austria are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 25' Alex Baena has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 8 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
  • 30' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Carney Chukwuemeka made 355 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 35' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 36' GOAL! Mikel Oyarzabal fires home to make it 1-0!
  • 41' Michael Gregoritsch, a Austria , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 46' The supporters are chanting for Florian Grillitsch. He replaces Xaver Schlager on 46 minute.
  • 51' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Spain and Austria are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
  • 56' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 60' Austria ring the changes. Michael Gregoritsch has done his job and it is now time for Marko Arnautovic to step up.
  • 65' Spain are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 66' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Pedro Porro makes it 2-0.
  • 71' Spain ring the changes. Alex Baena has done his job and it is now time for Ferran Torres to step up.
  • 76' Spain are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Austria backline.
  • 81' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 83' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Stefan Posch on 83 minutes.
  • 85' Pablo Gavira has so much to prove this time. He replaces Lamine Yamal on 85 minute.
  • 89' Mikel Oyarzabal doubles the advantage! 3-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 90' The crowd applauds Aymeric Laporte as he leaves the pitch. Marc Pubill steps in for Spain.
