- 15' 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 Rene suffering a number of foals already.

- 33' Magnificent from Kevin Serna! That is 10 goals in 14 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
