- 20' Przemyslaw Placheta needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 25' 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 Alex Matos suffering a number of foals already.
- 30' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 33' The deadlock is broken! Michal Helik gets on the scoresheet on 33 minutes.
