- 0' In just a few seconds San Siro will turn into a battlefield for AC Milan and FC Porto.
- 5' AC Milan is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 6' What a strike from Luis Diaz! The score is 0-1.
- 11' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Otavio made 480 appearances and scored 23 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 16' Vitor Ferreira needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 21' Theo Hernandez has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 32 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 26' 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 Olivier Giroud suffering a number of foals already.
- 28' AC Milan receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 28.
- 33' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 33 minutes.
- 38' FC Porto 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.
- 43' The travelling FC Porto supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 46' The whistle greets Davide Calabria as he departs to be replaced by Pierre Kalulu.
- 49' It’s a booking for FC Porto player. Marko Grujic gets a Yellow card.
- 54' It looks surprising AC Milan does not make any changes. Rafael Leao has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 55' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Fikayo Tomori.
- 60' FC Porto is showing some good football. However, FC Porto are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 61' GOAL! Chancel Mbemba scores on 61.
- 65' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Chancel Mbemba.
- 68' The supporters are chanting for Rade Krunic. He replaces Brahim Diaz on 68 minute.
- 69' Time for substitution for AC Milan. Sandro Tonali is replaced by Franck Kessie.
- 70' Another change for FC Porto made on 70 minute. Sergio Oliveira leaves to be changed by Vitor Ferreira.

- 76' It is a substitution in AC Milan team. Olivier Giroud is replaced by Zlatan Ibrahimovic on 76 minute.
