Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Estadio de los Juegos Mediterraneos. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' It looks like no one’s ball. Athletic Club is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 10' It looks surprising Athletic Club does not make any changes. Oihan Sancet has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 15' UD Almeria is showing some good football. However, UD Almeria are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 20' Inaki Williams needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 25' The travelling Athletic Club supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 27' Largie Ramazani was booked on 27.
- 32' 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 Sergio Arribas suffering a number of foals already.
- 34' It’s gonna be a card for Marc Pubill.
- 39' Athletic Club 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.
- 44' UD Almeria started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 44.
- 46' Another change for Athletic Club made on 46 minute. Asier Villalibre leaves to be changed by Raul Garcia.
- 48' The whistle greets Dion Lopy as he departs to be replaced by Gonzalo Melero.
- 53' It’s gonna be a card for Largie Ramazani.
- 58' Supporters expect more eagerness from Marc Pubill, as he is very good at scoring at Estadio de los Juegos Mediterraneos with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
- 63' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 66' UD Almeria manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Bruno Langa is hanging Alex Centelles on the field on 66 minute.
- 67' Oihan Sancet is replacing Ruiz de Galarreta for the Athletic Club side.
- 72' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering UD Almeria that had 160 games and scored 187 goals.
- 74' Malcom Ares is replacing Alex Berenguer for the Athletic Club side.
- 79' Anthony Lozano has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 37 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 84' Oihan Sancet is having his name booked by the referee on 84.
- 89' It’s a booking for UD Almeria player. Gonzalo Melero gets a card.
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 0-0.
