- 13' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 18' The travelling CA Unión supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 23' CA Boca Juniors are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 28' 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.
- 33' CA Unión seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.

- 61' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

- 65' The whistle greets Alexis Mac Allister as he departs to be replaced by Daniele De Rossi.
