Live comments

  • 0' - Welcome to Fussball Arena Munich that hosts another battle between Belgium and Italy.
  • 5' - Italy is showing some good football. However, Italy are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 10' - Thomas Vermaelen has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 36 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 13' - Italy is taking the lead after the goal scored by Leonardo Bonucci on 13.
  • 18' - It looks like no one’s ball. Belgium is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 20' - Marco Verratti is having his name booked by the referee on 20.
  • 21' - Belgium player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 26' - 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.
  • 31' - What a strike from Nicolo Barella! The score is 0-2.
  • 36' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Belgium needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 41' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 44' - GOAL! Lorenzo Insigne scores on 44.
  • 47' - What a strike from Romelu Lukaku! The score is 1-3.
  • 52' - 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 Youri Tielemans suffering a number of foals already.
  • 57' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Italy that had 111 games and scored 38 goals.
  • 62' - It’s high time Roberto Mancini made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 67' - Belgium started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 67.
  • 69' - The supporters are chanting for Dries Mertens. He replaces Youri Tielemans on 69 minute.
  • 70' - Another substitution for Belgium to replace Youri Tielemans by Dries Mertens on 70 minute.
  • 73' - The whistle greets Nacer Chadli as he departs to be replaced by Dennis Praet.
  • 74' - The Belgium manager makes a substitution. Nacer Chadli departs to be replaced by Dennis Praet.
  • 79' - Domenico Berardi is replacing Lorenzo Insigne for the Italy side.
  • 84' - It looks surprising Belgium does not make any changes. Thomas Meunier has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 89' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Federico Chiesa made 409 appearances and scored 50 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 90' - Italy receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 90.
  • 90' - Another substitution for Italy to replace Federico Chiesa by Rafael Toloi on 90 minute.
  • Another three points for Italy.
