Events

Match Events

  • 0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Switzerland is hosting France for another epic battle.
  • 5' Laurent Koscielny has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 19 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Yann Sommer made 479 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 15' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Switzerland needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Kingsley Coman, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 25' France player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 30' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 30 minutes.
  • 35' Switzerland is showing some good football. However, Switzerland are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 40' It looks like no one’s ball. Switzerland is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 45' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 50' 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.
  • 55' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 60' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Switzerland that had 25 games and scored 36 goals.
  • 63' France manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Dimitri Payet is hanging Kingsley Coman on the field on 63 minute.
  • 68' 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 Stephan Lichtsteiner suffering a number of foals already.
  • 73' Switzerland is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 74' The supporters are chanting for Haris Seferovic. He replaces Breel Embolo on 74 minute.
  • 77' Blaise Matuidi is replacing Antoine Griezmann for the France side.
  • 79' The supporters are chanting for Gelson Fernandes. He replaces Xherdan Shaqiri on 79 minute.
  • 83' France player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 86' The Switzerland manager makes a substitution. Admir Mehmedi departs to be replaced by Michael Lang.
  • The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
