Events
Match Events
- 0' And we are off! Ukraine vs Poland — let the football do the talking.
- 5' Ruslan Rotan has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 10' Ukraine 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.
- 15' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 20' Ukraine is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 25' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Ruslan Rotan on 25 minutes.
- 30' Oleksandr Zinchenko is a natural left-back and has been asked to do a very specific job for Ukraine tonight.
- 35' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 38' The referee has no hesitation. Oleksandr Kucher is booked for Ukraine — Yellow card on 38.
- 43' Poland international Kamil Glik has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 46' Another substitution for Poland to replace Piotr Zielinski by Jakub Blaszczykowski on 46 minute.
- 51' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Ukraine and Poland are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 54' Jakub Blaszczykowski has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 54 minutes.
- 59' Over 59 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 60' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Bartosz Kapustka on 60 minutes.
- 65' It looks like no one’s ball. Poland is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 70' Taras Stepanenko has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 71' The Poland manager makes a substitution. Bartosz Kapustka departs to be replaced by Kamil Grosicki.
- 73' Oleksandr Zinchenko makes way for Viktor Kovalenko at the 73 minute mark. A tactical switch from Ukraine.
- 78' Yevhen Khacheridi has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 83' Both keepers have barely been tested. Ukraine and Poland are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 88' 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 Tomasz Jodlowiec suffering a number of foals already.
- 90' Fresh legs for Ukraine! Anatoliy Tymoshchuk comes on to replace Roman Zozulya.
- Game over. The scoreline of 0-1 tells the full story of an entertaining encounter.
