- 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against AC Milan and AC Sparta Praha has kicked off!
- 5' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 10' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 15' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Ondrej Celustka, as he is very good at scoring at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 24' Brahim Diaz puts AC Milan on the lead.
- 28' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Borek Dockal.
- 33' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Michal Travnik made 11 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 36' AC Sparta Praha receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 36.
- 41' AC Sparta Praha started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 41.
- 46' The supporters are chanting for Rafael Leao. He replaces Zlatan Ibrahimovic on 46 minute.
- 51' AC Milan 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.
- 52' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for David Pavelka.
- 57' GOAL! Rafael Leao scores on 57. Assisted by Diogo Dalot
- 62' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering AC Sparta Praha that had 46 games and scored 68 goals.
- 63' It is a substitution in AC Sparta Praha team. Ladislav Krejci is replaced by David Moberg-Karlsson on 63 minute.
- 66' GOAL! Diogo Dalot scores on 66.
- 68' The supporters are chanting for Andrea Conti. He replaces Davide Calabria on 68 minute.
- 73' The travelling AC Sparta Praha supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 78' Ladislav Krejci has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 14 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
- 80' It is a substitution in AC Sparta Praha team. David Lischka is replaced by Dominik Plechaty on 80 minute.
- 81' Franck Kessie has so much to prove this time. He replaces Ismael Bennacer on 81 minute.
- 86' 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 Libor Kozak suffering a number of foals already.
- 88' It is a substitution in AC Milan team. Rade Krunic is replaced by Daniel Maldini on 88 minute.
- 90' AC Sparta Praha manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Vojtech Patrak is hanging Borek Dockal on the field on 90 minute.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for AC Milan players.
