Match Events
- 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against UD Almeria and FC Barcelona has kicked off!
- 5' It’s high time Pepe Mel made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Robert Lewandowski made 540 appearances and scored 302 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 14' GOAL! Fermin Lopez scores on 14. Assisted by Hector Fort
- 19' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 24' 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 Adri Embarba suffering a number of foals already.
- 29' FC Barcelona started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 29.
- 34' Joao Cancelo has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 14 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
- 39' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. FC Barcelona needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 44' Jules Kounde needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 49' 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.
- 54' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 59' Another substitution for UD Almeria to replace Leo Baptistao by Luka Romero on 59 minute.
- 64' 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.
- 67' What a strike from Fermin Lopez! The score is 0-2.
- 68' Another change for UD Almeria made on 68 minute. Jonathan Viera leaves to be changed by Gonzalo Melero.
- 73' Another change for FC Barcelona made on 73 minute. Hector Fort leaves to be changed by Joao Cancelo.
- 78' It looks surprising FC Barcelona does not make any changes. Luis Maximiano has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 80' Alex Centelles is replacing Adri Embarba for the UD Almeria side.
- 83' The FC Barcelona manager makes a substitution. Pedri departs to be replaced by Oriol Romeu.
- 85' Vitor Roque was booked on 85.
- 90' It looks like no one’s ball. UD Almeria is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
