using his strength to Shield the ball well that's the end of that move for now atuesta [Applause] Oliva passing it accurately big chance marvelous [Applause] anticipation bad Challenge and now it's up

getting a clean header there [Applause] [Applause] well pressing really high well putting so much effort into winning back possession he's got to score it's in they're looking really relaxed and confident and not giving the opposition much of a look [Applause] in well I have to say he's done really well here he's in the right place and then a decent finish that's a good [Applause] goal so two nil now bassi Sebastian kovalic karasia opportunity here and that a piece of goalkeeping you're going to see again and again and again corner kick played in keeper did his job to begin with and No Nonsense defensive clearance moving forward effectively now he must favor the cross well it was pretty straightforward for the [Applause] goalkeeper haulings head Sanchez [Applause] error by The Keeper might give them a chance and the referee blows for a [Applause] foul he read the situation defensively and did it his job Tilman now do they mean business on this occasion well it came to nothing in the [Applause] end Oliva and it's with Sanchez and still looking for [Applause] space plenty of supports here and he takes on the shots and still danger here and cleared away getting forward oh genuine chance intense pressure well they've lost the ball real chance there it is a fantastic goal and no wonder he's off [Applause] [Applause] celebrating just look at this again the combination play in the top third of the field was so precise and then the shot is emphatic he strikes it with such power the keeper has no time to react what a good finish blistering first half display and just look at that score karasia really fine play to keep possession arur well High marks for that pass now all the cross work out for them pretty routine there for the [Applause] goalkeeper Tilman good technique [Applause] displayed but they took care of the situation [Applause] defensively ad Alberto karasia well doesn't have to do it on his own Sanchez on the ball banga hing's head and it's with Sanchez it's with gregush well spot on with that [Applause] challenge a very effective play and they might be on to something is this the moment oh superb save massive credit to the keeper well he's so hard to beat in these situations it's brilliant [Applause] goalkeeping they favored a short one here determined defending kovalic racing forward trying to catch them [Applause] out just the challenge that was [Applause] required Franco Escobar oh that's a really good run and that's a [Applause] corner time for a change then can he deliver it with accuracy not away [Applause] completely and there the move ends for now [Applause] just have to make sure they don't get caught on the [Applause] Counterattack atuesta surely and that's fantastic goalkeeping to get across and deal with a danger arur here's arur Yan gregush [Applause] kovalic here's arur oh surely it's gone in and well he might celebrate on the back of that well this is a very tidy finish as you can see he's under so much pressure but his strength just allows him to hit through the ball cleanly it's an excellent goal well the action continues and no shortage of goals 3-1 as things stand chistian Ola excellent use of the ball as they make their way forward great defending here and he's in an offside position [Applause] arur it's with gregush Sebastian fera could cross it in here genuine chance you'll be hard pressed to find a better set give them that lorice well could this be the Turning Point the fans are certainly hoping so over it comes good clearance arur terrific block there and the Keeper's technical skills there for all to see well from that close in that's a really good save such good reflexes corner kick played in well not cleared away completely vital [Applause] intervention so a throw in here and a good challenge to bring that attack to an end and they will be awarded a free kick for that getting forward it should be well it really looked as though that was going to be another goal from him well a chance for he second there probably should have done a bit better there [Applause] really now how about the short corner [Applause] Tilman Moro nicely timed tackle now the Counterattack looks on and the referee is going to add on four added minutes well nicely cut out is this the moment what a genuine opport Unity but it was squandered go kick well he often cuts the figure of a thinking person's footballer and Stuart he's thought his way throughout this match well he has that assist to his name but it's been his control of that Midfield area that's made him the outstanding player today every time he gets on the ball he seems to find the right pass he's been excellent bassi that's a very fine piece of tackling really good piece of goalkeeping [Applause] there Tilman [Applause] big chance oh that's textbook goalkeeping still looking for [Applause] space great [Applause] defending will it be he'll be breathing a sigh of relief ball one and the managers will now deliver their halim team talks we're at the end Halftime of 45 minutes in this game I think most fans would be pretty happy with this man's display so far well I thought he had a very good first half and key to that was his movement time and time again he got in behind the opposition and he was a real threat throughout the game and I'm sure we're going to see more of him in the second half [Music] [Music] [Music] 2nd Half well as they get the ball rolling again interesting to see how this second half pans out oh tremendous vision he read the situation defensively and did his job pressure exerted but he keeps the ball arur decent looking pass hing's [Applause] head and using his strength to Shield the [Applause] ball that is tackling of the highest order that needs an accurate [Applause] cross can they make one of these passes count keeping possession of the ball with authority atuesta Christian [Applause] Ola and a throw in Forth coming but the keeper takes command of the situation thumps clear not a great Challenge free kick here well not giving the opposition a look in that's strong play just wasn't going to give that ball away Sebastian [Applause] kovalic options in the center very quick thinking there [Music] Tilman Ryan haulings head and they're almost inviting them to come at them [Applause] good physical play the attack continues they're making considerable progress gives it a go oh magnificent from The Keeper fantastic stop and now Steve Clark with it and playing it to the goalkeeper [Applause] arur well had no intention of losing out wanted to keep it but [Applause] couldn't well making considerable progress with the ball took P one back here and a fantastic diving save so a Personnel change then number 21 entering the match number [Applause] 16r elect to go short well that's how to Shield the ball and control [Applause] [Applause] it just the challenge that was required [Applause] Herrera in a position from which they could potentially do a bit of damage here have no interest in losing possession and the cross into the middle well in fact a good but straightforward Claim by The Keeper making use of his physical strength to hang on to it well strong play here hanga well possibilities in the center just knocking it around looking to carve out a chance Sanchez trying his luck huge block now maybe the really short route to go and he's made it a brace for himself The Defenders just unable to stay with him and he's having a field [Applause] day well it's a very simple finish in the end but his movement was really good he just found himself a bit of space in the the box when it mattered [Applause] most well not too much defending going on in the grand scheme of things 4-1 well he's dicing with trouble here having already been booked well he stays on the pitch no second yellow card well he's a very lucky boy Derek that was a poor [Applause] challenge Christian ola atuesta oh nice [Applause] ball and a very good challenge Franco [Applause] Escobar bassi [Applause] now with ector Herrera and back to Herrera using his physical strength to make sure he doesn't lose the ball Moro and now Palencia getting in there to intercept cuts it back ball retention so important so now a corner played over it's opening up for them oh chance perhaps and that's a very good Parry atuesta on the ball banga is the miss the moment well only just wide of the post [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] Tilman difficult to stop [Applause] him can't miss surely and that's an excellent piece of Defending to thwart him arur Escobar well it stopped a promising attack in its tracks and you wouldn't be surprised if there's a card coming out here and a yellow card it's going to be Stewart yeah the ref's got that right it's a yellow card all day long into the box it goes well no degree of difficulty for the [Applause] goalkeeper attention Trevor please report for into the advanced [Applause] position and just blotting out the [Applause] danger Seri Palencia can they convert and it goes he's made it a brace for himself no stopping him apparently [Applause] well as you can see the skill to set up this chance is absolutely brilliant and it makes the Striker's job so easy all he has to do is make the right connection it's a lovely goal a glut of goals 51 it is [Music] [Applause] Herrera Sanchez on the ball banga that's a foul and it will be a potentially dangerous free kick well the referee saw it as a Booker defense and I think he's got it absolutely right that was a poor challenge you have to say [Music] oh good strike no match for a well organized wall long B he's using his strength to good effect Escobar so a goal kick is what's coming up here [Applause] [Applause] Sanchez Tilman well we have 20 minutes left in this game had no interest in losing possession and he's only gone and made it a hatrick absolutely unplayable today what a performance well it's a good finish as you can see look at the bend he puts on the ball the keeper just can't get across to it that's an excellent [Applause] goal I'm putting so much effort into winning back possession arur and support [Applause] available Tilman atuesta [Applause] can he take advantage marvelous anticipation arur bassi Escobar he's very Adept at protecting the ball well that's the end of that move for now [Applause] Sanchez long and it's with Sanchez they've lost [Applause] it [Applause] Tilman oh good run this now what can he do with it well disappointing end to the move now perhaps they can counter from here well they promised much on the break but ultimately delivered little ad Alberto karasia that's a good pass goalkeeping of the highest order well he's got to be pleased with that save it's absolutely magnificent [Music] [Applause] now how about the short [Applause] Corner well he certainly caught all of that but was never going to trouble The Keeper in the end goal kick it is so a Personnel change then number 25 Maxim Sho Sergei Palencia Christian Ola Kamar and nothing comes of that attack plenty of Running Room in the wide position just wasn't going to part with the ball arur doing well to keep possession Sebastian fera he read the situation defensively and did his job and kamarra has it and showing fine Vision atuesta real chance great defending corner kick played in well not cleared away [Applause] completely Wanga pressure exerted but he keeps the ball a glorious chance and this time it's in fabulous goal and just look at the [Applause] celebrations well here we can see it again and no wonder the manager is furious they just have to get tighter here deal with the danger otherwise that's the outcome not good enough defensively [Applause] well if there were any lingering doubts about the outcome surely they now have been removed well could be in hot water here booked already and off he must go after that second yellow card Stewart well he really has L his teammates down he had to be more sensible there [Applause] [Applause] and nicely over the top couldn't hang on to [Applause] it banga plenty of supports here terrific piece of
