- 77' Kwadwo Asamoah has so much to prove this time. He replaces Joao Pedro Galvao on 77 minute.
- 82' It looks surprising FC Crotone does not make any changes. Alfred Duncan has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 87' 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 Lisandro Magallan suffering a number of foals already.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Cagliari Calcio players.
