- 10' The travelling SpVgg Greuther Furth 1903 supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 15' It looks like no one’s ball. 1. FC Koln is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Eric Martel, as he is very good at scoring at RheinEnergieSTADION with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
- 25' 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 Tim Lemperle suffering a number of foals already.
- 30' SpVgg Greuther Furth 1903 is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 35' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. SpVgg Greuther Furth 1903 needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.

- 45' A meaty challenge results in booking for Damian Michalski on 45.
- 50' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Linton Maina made 291 appearances and scored 10 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 55' SpVgg Greuther Furth 1903 is showing some good football. However, SpVgg Greuther Furth 1903 are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 58' Gian-Luca Waldschmidt is replacing Jan Thielmann for the 1. FC Koln side.
- 63' Leart Paqarada has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 64' The referee calls foul for Maximilian Dietz. He receives a card.
- 64' Nemanja Motika is replacing Noel Futkeu for the SpVgg Greuther Furth 1903 side.

- 82' Dennis Srbeny has so much to prove this time. He replaces Roberto Massimo on 82 minute.
- 84' Florian Kainz is replacing Julian Pauli for the 1. FC Koln side.
