  • 10' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 15' Osman Junior has been relatively quiet despite scoring 2 goals in his last 173 appearances.
  • 20' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Marcos Paqueta will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 25' A quiet spell here at . Chapecoense AF seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 30' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Chapecoense AF needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 35' Chapecoense AF is showing some good football. However, Chapecoense AF are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.

  • 60' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 65' It looks like no one’s ball. Chapecoense AF is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 70' 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 Marcinho suffering a number of foals already.
  • 75' Hector Canteros needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
