- 0' The game is set. FK Jablonec kicks off things out of here…
- 5' 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 Milos Kratochvil suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' FK Jablonec is showing some good football. However, FK Jablonec are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.

- 55' What a strike from David Turnbull! The score is 2-0.
- 60' FK Jablonec 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.
