  • 15' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Juan Pablo Vojvoda will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 20' 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 Ederson suffering a number of foals already.
