    Sackey for Liberec gets a YC just before the HT whistle. 0-0, mostly a midfield slog in the first half.

    AZ testing the keeper from distance. AZ has conceded most of the field, midfield helping their shaky defense. Looks like it may end 0-0.

    Aron keeps getting fouled by Sackey, who already has a yellow.

    Liberec is quite terrible. Their passes into empty spaces are usually 10 feet too long.

    After 15 minutes of pressure, Liberec retreats, and AZ has taken over the midfield line. This is when.

    Last 10 minutes, neither team capable of stringing 3 passes together. 72' and looking more and more like a blank score.

    If AZ plays and AJ doesn't score, did the game actually happen?

    The Czechs advancing their lines again, pressuring on AZ's left, good save by Alvarado (AZ's keeper).

    Actually these Europa games are the most important IMO. This is when Aron faces teams that actually defend some.

    Now that we have this thread, yes! :D It's positive proof - that nothing happened.

    Reijnen, AZ's RB, keeps trying to cross but hitting the players instead.
