Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Stadio Giovanni Zini. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' The home supporters are growing impatient. US Cremonese must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 10' US Cremonese are deployed in a 3-5-1-1 today, looking to exploit space against Carrarese Calcio's 3-5-2 shape.
- 11' A moment of madness from Charles Pickel on 11 minutes earns him a card. US Cremonese will be frustrated.
- 16' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 21' 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 Jari Vandeputte suffering a number of foals already.
- 23' A moment of madness from Leonardo Capezzi on 23 minutes earns him a card. Carrarese Calcio will be frustrated.
- 25' Poor challenge from Julian Illanes. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
- 30' Over 30 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 35' It looks like no one’s ball. US Cremonese is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 40' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 45' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Giovanni Stroppa will be considering his options from the bench.
- 46' Jari Vandeputte makes way for Dennis Johnsen at the 46 minute mark. A tactical switch from US Cremonese.
- 51' It is a cagey affair so far. US Cremonese in their 3-5-1-1 trying to find a way past Carrarese Calcio's compact 3-5-2.
- 56' It looks surprising Carrarese Calcio does not make any changes. Leonardo Cerri has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 61' Fresh legs for Carrarese Calcio! Riccardo Palmieri comes on to replace Emanuele Zuelli.
- 66' Samuel Giovane has been relatively quiet despite scoring 1 goals in his last 533 appearances.
- 69' The crowd applauds Manuel De Luca as he leaves the pitch. Marco Nasti steps in for US Cremonese.
- 74' US Cremonese currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 77' Niccolo Belloni gets the nod from Carrarese Calcio. He replaces Manuel Cicconi and will look to change the dynamic.
- 82' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. US Cremonese needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
