Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at AAMI Park. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Sweden winning 100% of all matches.
- 10' Crystal Dunn needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 15' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 20' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Sweden needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 25' It’s high time made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 30' USA started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 30.
- 35' Sweden 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.
- 40' The travelling USA supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 45' It looks like no one’s ball. Sweden is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 49' The referee shows Sweden player a card on 49.
- 54' Supporters expect more eagerness from Stina Blackstenius, as he is very good at scoring at AAMI Park with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 59' 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 Lynn Williams suffering a number of foals already.
- 64' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 66' The supporters are chanting for Lynn Williams. He replaces Trinity Rodman on 66 minute.
- 71' 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.
- 76' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering USA that had 4 games and scored 4 goals.
- 81' The supporters are chanting for Lina Hurtig. He replaces Johanna Rytting Kaneryd on 81 minute.
- 86' USA is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- Another three points for Sweden.
