- 0' In just a few seconds will turn into a battlefield for FK Liepaja and BK Hacken.
- 5' It looks surprising BK Hacken does not make any changes. Mervan Celik has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 10' FK Liepaja started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 10.
- 15' Janis Ikaunieks needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 20' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. BK Hacken needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 25' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 30' 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.
- 35' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FK Liepaja that had 48 games and scored 6 goals.
- 40' FK Liepaja seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 44' It’s a booking for BK Hacken player. Kari Arkivuo gets a Yellow card.
- 49' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 49 minutes.
- 52' The referee shows FK Liepaja player a Yellow card on 52.
- 55' It is a substitution in FK Liepaja team. Martins Kigurs is replaced by Girts Karlsons on 55 minute.
- 57' Another substitution for BK Hacken to replace Viktor Lundberg by Daleho Irandust on 57 minute.
- 62' It looks like no one’s ball. BK Hacken is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 64' FK Liepaja manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Verners Apins is hanging Vladimirs Kamess on the field on 64 minute.
- 69' 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 Martins Kigurs suffering a number of foals already.
- 72' The whistle greets Erik Friberg as he departs to be replaced by Alexander Faltsetas.
