Events
Match Events
- 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and US Catanzaro launch into their encounter with US Cremonese.
- 5' Massimo Coda is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for US Catanzaro so far.
- 10' US Cremonese come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 13' Luka Lochoshvili gets the nod from US Cremonese. He replaces Luca Ravanelli and will look to change the dynamic.
- 18' 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 Luca Ravanelli suffering a number of foals already.
- 23' It looks like no one’s ball. US Cremonese is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 28' Gianluca Saro has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 32' The referee has no hesitation. Matteo Bianchetti is booked for US Cremonese — card on 32.
- 37' US Cremonese player sees a card in front of him.
- 42' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 47' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 52' It looks surprising US Cremonese does not make any changes. Frank Tsadjout has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 53' A change in the US Catanzaro ranks — Giuseppe Ambrosino exits the field as Tommaso Biasci enters on 53.
- 58' The travelling US Cremonese supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 63' 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.
- 68' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Davide Veroli made 428 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 73' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 75' The referee shows US Catanzaro player a card on 75.
- 76' A change in the US Cremonese ranks — Franco Vazquez exits the field as Cristian Buonaiuto enters on 76.
