- 5' FC Viktoria Plzen is showing some good football. However, FC Viktoria Plzen are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 10' FC Viktoria Plzen started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 10.
- 15' 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.
- 20' Rangers FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 25' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 30' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 35' It looks surprising FC Viktoria Plzen does not make any changes. Lyall Cameron has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 40' Prince Adu needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 2 Yellow cards this season.
- 41' What a strike from Rafiu Durosinmi! The score is 1-0.
- 46' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with Rangers FC winning 50% of all matches.
- 51' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jan Paluska made 150 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

- 65' 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 Jefte suffering a number of foals already.
