  • 5' It looks surprising FC København does not make any changes. Luka Capan has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 10' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 15' It looks like no one’s ball. HNK Rijeka is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.

  • 45' FC København is showing some good football. However, FC København are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 46' Time for substitution for FC Kobenhavn. Viktor Fischer is replaced by Mikkel Kaufmann.
  • 51' 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 Viktor Fischer suffering a number of foals already.
