Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Estadio de la Ceramica. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 10' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Marcelino will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 15' The 31-year-old Nicolas Pepe has been sensational this season — 4 goals and 1 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 20' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Pablo Martinez made 288 appearances and scored 10 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 25' Villarreal CF has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
  • 30' It looks surprising Villarreal CF does not make any changes. Carlos Alvarez has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 35' named a 4-4-2 earlier, and opted for a 4-1-4-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 38' What composure from Georges Mikautadze! The Georgia international strokes it home. 1-0.
  • 43' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 45' Levante UD player sees a card in front of him.
  • 50' Levante UD 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.
  • 51' What composure from Carlos Espi! The Spain international strokes it home. 1-1.
  • 55' Renato Veiga is having his name booked by the referee on 55.
  • 60' Levante UD started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 60.
  • 62' Alberto Moleiro puts Villarreal CF on the lead.
  • 67' 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 Jon Olasagasti suffering a number of foals already.
  • 68' Georges Mikautadze with the second goal in the match!
  • 73' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 78' Matias Moreno has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 83' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 87' What composure from Tajon Buchanan! The Canada international strokes it home. 4-1.
  • 88' Thomas Partey was booked on 88.
  • 90' Magnificent from Nicolas Pepe! That is 70 goals in 477 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • Villarreal CF celebrates a vital win. Three points that could prove pivotal come season's end.
