- 30' Supporters expect more eagerness from Chadi Riad, as he is very good at scoring at Vitality Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 32' What a strike from Eli Kroupi! The score is 1-1.
- 37' 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 Marcus Tavernier suffering a number of foals already.
- 38' The referee shows Crystal Palace FC player a card on 38.
- 43' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
