Match Events
- 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Venezia FC and Palermo FC has kicked off!
- 5' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with Venezia FC winning 50% of all matches.
- 7' It’s gonna be a card for Bartosz Bereszynski.
- 12' Venezia FC is showing some good football. However, Venezia FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 17' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 22' Venezia FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 22.
- 27' Issa Doumbia needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 1 Yellow cards this season.
- 31' That looks like a foul for a card for Patryk Peda.
- 36' It looks like no one’s ball. Palermo FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 41' The travelling Palermo FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 46' Goal! Issa Doumbia scores his 2 goal in 153 matches.
- 51' Palermo FC 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.
- 56' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Venezia FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 61' 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.

- 74' That looks like a foul for a card for Issa Doumbia.
- 79' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 84' 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 Lion Lauberbach suffering a number of foals already.
- 89' Venezia FC looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Mattia Compagnon scoring 1 goals.
- 90' It’s a booking for Venezia FC player. Mattia Compagnon gets a card.
- That’s it! Another goalless match for Venezia FC and Palermo FC (для сухой ничьи).
