- 0' What a night it is going to be! Cagliari Calcio welcome ACF Fiorentina for this crunch clash at Sardegna Arena.
- 5' Cagliari Calcio is showing some good football. However, Cagliari Calcio are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 10' It looks surprising ACF Fiorentina does not make any changes. Lorenzo Venuti has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 15' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 15 minutes.
- 20' Cagliari Calcio have won 284 goals from 418 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.

- 32' A quiet spell here at Sardegna Arena. Cagliari Calcio seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 35' A meaty challenge results in booking for Babis Lykogiannis on 35.
- 40' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 45' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Christian Kouame made 418 appearances and scored 29 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 46' Bartlomiej Dragowski makes way for Pietro Terracciano at the 46 minute mark. A tactical switch from ACF Fiorentina.
- 51' Cagliari Calcio 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.
- 56' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 61' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 63' A change in the ACF Fiorentina ranks — Christian Kouame exits the field as Gaetano Castrovilli enters on 63.
- 67' Martin Caceres has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 67.

- 76' Luca Ceppitelli needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 81' 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 Diego Godin suffering a number of foals already.
- 86' Time for substitution for Cagliari Calcio. Babis Lykogiannis is replaced by Alberto Cerri.
- The final score is 0-0.
