Events

- 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at AKRON!
- 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jhon Lucumi made 326 appearances and scored 5 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 10' 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 Cedric Bakambu suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' Both keepers have barely been tested. Colombia and Congo DR are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 20' It is a cagey affair so far. Colombia in their trying to find a way past Congo DR's compact .
- 25' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 30' Congo DR is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 35' Colombia are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Congo DR backline.
- 40' Steve Kapuadi has been relatively quiet despite scoring 0 goals in his last 4 appearances.
- 45' Congo DR are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.

- 56' It’s gonna be a card for Jhon Lucumi.
- 57' Colombia player sees a card in front of him.
- 57' A tactical swap from Congo DR — Simon Banza on, Cedric Bakambu off on 57 minutes.
- 58' Another substitution for Colombia to replace Luis Suarez by Jhon Cordoba on 58 minute.
- 63' The energy levels are beginning to show. Sébastien Desabre might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 68' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Sébastien Desabre will be considering his options from the bench.
