- 31' 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 Charles Traore suffering a number of foals already.
- 34' Fresh legs for Olympique Lyonnais! Memphis Depay comes on to replace Lucas Tousart.
