Match Events
- 0' The game is set. SS Lazio 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 Boulaye Dia suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' Supporters expect more eagerness from Devyne Rensch, as he is very good at scoring at Johan Cruijff Arena with 4 goals in the last 4 games.
- 12' Goal! Loum Tchaouna scores his 4 goal in 411 matches.
- 17' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 22' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Samuel Gigot made 347 appearances and scored 16 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 27' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. AFC Ajax needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 32' The travelling SS Lazio supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 37' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 38' The referee shows AFC Ajax player a card on 38.
- 43' It’s high time Francesco Farioli made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 45' Brian Brobbey is having his name booked by the referee on 45.
- 46' Luca Pellegrini is having his name booked by the referee on 46.
- 46' The whistle greets Boulaye Dia as he departs to be replaced by Mattia Zaccagni.
- 47' GOAL! Bertrand Traore scores on 47.
- 52' Fisayo Dele-Bashiru puts SS Lazio on the lead.
- 57' Kian Fitz-Jim has so much to prove this time. He replaces Mika Godts on 57 minute.
- 62' It looks like no one’s ball. SS Lazio is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.

- 70' The supporters are chanting for Nuno Tavares. He replaces Luca Pellegrini on 70 minute.
- 72' The whistle greets Steven Berghuis as he departs to be replaced by Chuba Akpom.
