Events

- 11' It’s high time Ivan Juric made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 13' What composure from Antonio Sanabria! The Paraguay international strokes it home. 1-0.
- 18' 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.
- 23' It is a substitution in Genoa CFC team. Domenico Criscito is replaced by Antonio Barreca on 23 minute.
- 25' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Antonio Sanabria makes it 2-0.
- 30' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Genoa CFC and Hellas Verona FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 35' Over 35 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 40' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 44' Christian Romero has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 44 minutes.
- 45' The referee has no hesitation. Christian Romero is booked for Genoa CFC — Yellow card on 45.
- 46' Hellas Verona FC ring the changes. Matteo Pessina has done his job and it is now time for Fabio Borini to step up.
- 48' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Andrea Masiello on 48 minutes.
- 53' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 58' Hellas Verona FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.

- 74' Genoa CFC are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Hellas Verona FC's shape.
- 75' Eddy Salcedo Mora is replacing Koray Gunter for the Hellas Verona FC side.
- 80' 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 Eddy Salcedo Mora suffering a number of foals already.
- 82' Fresh legs for Genoa CFC! Andrea Pinamonti comes on to replace Goran Pandev.
- 83' The Genoa CFC manager makes a substitution. Filip Jagiello departs to be replaced by Francesco Cassata.

- 90' A moment of madness from Francesco Cassata on 90 minutes earns him a Red card. Genoa CFC will be frustrated.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Genoa CFC players.
