- 0' KICK OFF: PFK Sochi gets underway.
- 5' Over 5 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 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 Artyom Makarchuk suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' PFK Sochi are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 17' Fresh legs for FK Krasnodar! Mihajlo Banjac comes on to replace Aleksandr Chernikov.

- 52' What a strike from Eduard Spertsyan! The score is 2-0.

- 66' Goal! Georgii Melkadze scores his 18 goal in 350 matches.
