- 0' We are underway at Red Bull Arena. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' FC Red Bull Salzburg is showing some good football. However, FC Red Bull Salzburg are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 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 Etey Shechter suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' Albert Vallci has been relatively quiet despite scoring 0 goals in his last 225 appearances.
- 16' Magnificent from Patson Daka! That is 31 goals in 225 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 21' The energy levels are beginning to show. Giorgios Donis might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 26' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His FC Red Bull Salzburg side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 30' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Eden Karzev makes it 1-1.
- 35' Maccabi Tel Aviv FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 38' Controversy at the stadium! Mohamed Camara argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- 43' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Red Bull Salzburg that had 225 games and scored 139 goals.
- 44' It’s a booking for Maccabi Tel Aviv FC player. Eden Karzev gets a Yellow card.
- 45' The referee calls foul for Matan Baltaksa. He receives a Yellow card.
- 49' Dominik Szoboszlai doubles the advantage! 2-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 54' The travelling Maccabi Tel Aviv FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 59' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 64' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 65' A change in the Maccabi Tel Aviv FC ranks — Ben Bitton exits the field as Matan Hozez enters on 65.
- 66' The supporters are chanting for Mergim Berisha. He replaces Sekou Koita on 66 minute.
- 68' Patson Daka is having a superb {COMPETITION} campaign — that is 0 goals this season for the forward.
- 73' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 74' Time for substitution for FC Red Bull Salzburg. Mohamed Camara is replaced by Zlatko Junuzovic.
- 75' The supporters are chanting for Ronen Hanzis. He replaces Eylon Almog on 75 minute.
- 80' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 82' The FC Red Bull Salzburg bench stirs into life. Masaya Okugawa is withdrawn and Noah Okafor gets his opportunity.
- 87' Andre Ramalho is having his name booked by the referee on 87.
- 90' Controversy at the stadium! Noah Okafor argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- What a match! Full time at {STADIUM} — FC Red Bull Salzburg 3-1 Maccabi Tel Aviv FC.
