  • 3' Controversy at the stadium! Mehdi Leris argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.

  • 12' Controversy at the stadium! Domenico Criscito argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 15' Christian Kouame catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 15.
  • 20' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering AC Chievo Verona that had 190 games and scored 46 goals.
  • 25' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 30' Controversy at the stadium! Perparim Hetemaj argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 31' Poor challenge from Goran Pandev. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
  • 36' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 37' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Krzysztof Piatek.
  • 42' Krzysztof Piatek adds to his 1 season tally! Genoa CFC lead 1-0 — and this changes everything.
  • 47' Both keepers have barely been tested. Genoa CFC and AC Chievo Verona are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 48' Another change for AC Chievo Verona made on 48 minute. Nenad Tomovic leaves to be changed by Fabio Depaoli.
  • 53' It looks like no one’s ball. AC Chievo Verona is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 54' A goal from the North Macedonia international Goran Pandev! He fires home on 54 to make it 2-0!
  • 55' AC Chievo Verona ring the changes. Perparim Hetemaj has done his job and it is now time for Valter Birsa to step up.

  • 61' Nicola Rigoni is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Genoa CFC so far.
  • 66' 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 Emanuele Giaccherini suffering a number of foals already.
  • 71' With 0 assists to his name this season, Perparim Hetemaj is clearly more than just a goal scorer for AC Chievo Verona.
  • 74' Another change for Genoa CFC made on 74 minute. Darko Lazovic leaves to be changed by Ervin Zukanovic.
