Events
Match Events
- 0' Welcome to Stadio Via del Mare that hosts another battle between US Lecce and US Cremonese.
- 5' 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 Marin Pongracic suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both US Lecce and US Cremonese are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 15' The travelling US Cremonese supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 18' Controversy at the stadium! Wladimiro Falcone argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- 19' The deadlock is broken! Daniel Ciofani gets on the scoresheet on 19 minutes.
- 24' Over 24 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 29' Santiago Ascacibar has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 3 appearances with only 3 goals this season.
- 34' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 39' Wladimiro Falcone has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 41' David Okereke was booked on 41.
- 42' Gabriel Strefezza makes no mistake. The score reads 1-1 and US Lecce are in front.
- 46' The whistle greets Lorenzo Colombo as he departs to be replaced by Assan Ceesay.
- 51' Joan Gonzalez is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for US Lecce tonight.
- 53' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Kristoffer Askildsen.
- 58' It looks surprising US Cremonese does not make any changes. Luka Lochoshvili has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 60' A tactical swap from US Lecce — Giuseppe Pezzella on, Antonino Gallo off on 60 minutes.
- 65' Cyriel Dessers has so much to prove this time. He replaces Daniel Ciofani on 65 minute.
- 70' Time for substitution for US Lecce. Kristoffer Askildsen is replaced by Alexis Blin.
- 74' US Cremonese make a change. Emanuele Valeri trudges off to be replaced by Giacomo Quagliata on 74 minutes.
- 75' A tactical swap from US Cremonese — Felix Afena-Gyan on, David Okereke off on 75 minutes.
- 78' Controversy at the stadium! Giuseppe Pezzella argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- 83' The whistle greets Luca Zanimacchia as he departs to be replaced by Cristian Buonaiuto.
- 84' It is a substitution in US Lecce team. Gabriel Strefezza is replaced by Federico Di Francesco on 84 minute.
- 89' US Lecce are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
