- 27' Denis Cheryshev adds to his 0 season tally! Valencia CF lead 0-1 — and this changes everything.
- 32' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

- 61' A change in the Athletic Club ranks — Ibai exits the field as Aduriz enters on 61.
