Min. 88 :(rbl) Y_Diomande beats his marker 
          ...  That was a quick burst of pace to set him free 
          ...  But M_Zalayeta slides in two footed! 
          ...  And play is brought to a halt by The Referee 
          ...  The Referee calls him over 
          ...  He lets him off with a strong warning 
Min. 88 :(rbl) Y_Diomande flicks it over C_C_Vickers's head 
          ...  He showed some great skill there! 
          ...  C_C_Vickers recovers to win the ball back. He's a real bundle of energy 
Min. 91 :(rbl) Y_Diomande gets the ball on the wing 
          ...  He slides the ball past C_Natali! 
          ...  He has some space now! 
          ...  M_van_Bommel fouls badly 
          ...  That looked malicious 
          ...  YELLOW CARD!! 
          ...  He is in the book for that one 
          ...  He's got to be careful now! 
Min. 93 :(nap) M_Zalayeta breaks free from the last defender! 
          ...  He just has to beat A_Batalla now! 
          ...  J_Branthwaite trips him up from behind! 
          ...  It looks like he could be sent off! 
          ...  YELLOW CARD!! 
          ...  It could have been worse! 
Min. 94 :(rbl) C_Baumgartner knocks it past the defender and runs onto it 
          ...  He showed great skill and pace there 
          ...  A wicked drive by C_Baumgartner! 
          ...  Terrific shot 
          ...  It takes a bounce of the defender 
          ...  The deflection takes it just wide 
          ...  That's unlucky!
