- 0' The ball is rolling at . FC Flora are looking to make home advantage count against APOEL FC.
- 5' FC Flora are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined APOEL FC backline.
- 10' APOEL FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 15' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 20' Both keepers have barely been tested. FC Flora and APOEL FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 25' 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 Frank Liivak suffering a number of foals already.
- 26' Zhivko Milanov was booked on 26.
- 31' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.

- 37' What composure from Markus Poom! The Estonia international strokes it home. 2-0.
- 42' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Bruno Baltazar will be considering his options from the bench.
- 46' Praxitelis Vouros is ready to make an impact after coming on for Carlao at the 46 minute mark.
- 51' It looks surprising FC Flora does not make any changes. Rauno Alliku has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 53' Nuno Morais has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 53.
- 57' Poor challenge from Tomas De Vincenti. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 59' The whistle greets Ghayas Zahid as he departs to be replaced by Savvas Gentsoglou.
- 64' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 67' The whistle greets Maksim Gussev as he departs to be replaced by Joseph Saliste.
- 70' Another change for FC Flora made on 70 minute. Frank Liivak leaves to be changed by Mark Anders Lepik.
- 75' Maksim Gussev, a Estonia , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 80' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. APOEL FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 81' A tactical swap from FC Flora — Erik Sorga on, Kevin Aloe off on 81 minutes.
