- 5' France international Adrien Rabiot has been a key figure this campaign — 1 goals and 2 assists in the Array this season.
- 7' A moment of madness from Joshua Kimmich on 7 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Germany will be frustrated.
- 12' With 0 assists to his name this season, Antonio Rudiger is clearly more than just a goal scorer for France.
- 17' 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.
- 20' Magnificent from Mats Hummels! That is 22 goals in 542 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 25' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering France that had 178 games and scored 94 goals.
- 30' It looks surprising Germany does not make any changes. Karim Benzema has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 35' France started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 35.
- 40' Supporters expect more eagerness from Emre Can, as he is very good at scoring at Fussball Arena Munchen with 0 goals in the last 0 games.

- 55' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both France and Germany are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
- 60' It looks like no one’s ball. Germany is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 65' The energy levels are beginning to show. Didier Deschamps might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 70' Both keepers have barely been tested. France and Germany are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 74' Fresh legs for Germany! Timo Werner comes on to replace Serge Gnabry.
- 79' Robin Gosens has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 1 cards already picked up this season.
- 84' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 87' Emre Can gets the nod from Germany. He replaces Matthias Ginter and will look to change the dynamic.
