Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Villarreal CF kicks off things out of here…
  • 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 Yerson Mosquera suffering a number of foals already.
  • 10' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 15' Sevilla FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
