Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Belgium to score. At the same time, Italy does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 5' It looks surprising Italy does not make any changes. Cristiana Girelli has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 10' Lisa Lichtfus needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 15' Belgium 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.
- 16' Italy player sees a card in front of him.
- 21' Supporters expect more eagerness from Mariam Toloba, as he is very good at scoring at Stade de Tourbillon with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 26' Italy looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Arianna Caruso scoring 1 goals.
- 31' 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.
- 33' Lucia Di Guglielmo is having his name booked by the referee on 33.
- 38' The travelling Italy supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 43' 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 Hannah Eurlings suffering a number of foals already.
- 44' What a strike from Arianna Caruso! The score is 0-1.
- 49' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 51' Italy player sees a card in front of him.
- 53' Elisabetta Oliviero has so much to prove this time. He replaces Lucia Di Guglielmo on 53 minute.
- 58' It looks like no one’s ball. Belgium is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 63' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 66' Another change for Belgium made on 66 minute. Jill Janssens leaves to be changed by Sarah Wijnants.
- 71' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 71 minutes.
- 72' The whistle greets Martina Lenzini as he departs to be replaced by Julie Piga.
- 75' Time for substitution for Belgium. Hannah Eurlings is replaced by Elena Dhont.
- 80' That looks like a foul for a card for Sari Kees.
- 85' Belgium started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 85.
- 87' It is a substitution in Belgium team. Justine Vanhaevermaet is replaced by Ella Van Kerkhoven on 87 minute.
