  • 5' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
  • 10' FK Rubin Kazan is showing some good football. However, FK Rubin Kazan are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 15' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FK Rubin Kazan that had 208 games and scored 211 goals.
  • 20' 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.

  • 29' FK Rubin Kazan is taking the lead after the goal scored by Mirlind Daku on 29.
  • 34' 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 Kevin Andrade suffering a number of foals already.
  • 39' The travelling FK Rubin Kazan supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.

  • 59' Yuriy Kovalev is having his name booked by the referee on 59.
  • 60' It’s gonna be a card for Yuriy Kovalev.
  • 65' Supporters expect more eagerness from Denil Maldonado, as he is very good at scoring at Arena Baltika with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
