Events

Match Events

  • 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and Spain launch into their encounter with Sweden.
  • 5' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 10' Spain currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 15' Viktor Claesson, a Sweden , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 20' Spain international Pedri has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 1 assists in the Array this season.
  • 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 Ludwig Augustinsson suffering a number of foals already.
  • 30' Alvaro Morata has been relatively quiet despite scoring 125 goals in his last 409 appearances.
  • 35' Sweden started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 35.
  • 40' The home supporters are growing impatient. Spain must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 45' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Spain and Sweden are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 50' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Spain that had 126 games and scored 64 goals.
  • 55' Controversy at the stadium! Mikael Lustig argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 60' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 60 minutes.
  • 65' Jens Cajuste has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 66' A tactical swap from Spain — Thiago Alcantara on, Rodri off on 66 minutes.
  • 68' The supporters are chanting for Robin Quaison. He replaces Markus Berg on 68 minute.
  • 69' Fresh legs for Sweden! Viktor Claesson comes on to replace Alexander Isak.
  • 74' Gerard Moreno gets the nod from Spain. He replaces Dani Olmo and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 75' The crowd applauds Mikael Lustig as he leaves the pitch. Emil Krafth steps in for Sweden.
  • 80' Spain are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Sweden's shape.
  • 84' Sweden ring the changes. Kristoffer Olsson has done his job and it is now time for Jens Cajuste to step up.
  • 87' Fabian Ruiz gets the nod from Spain. He replaces Koke and will look to change the dynamic.
  • The final whistle goes. A composed, disciplined performance from to claim maximum points.
