- 0' Welcome to Stadio Luigi Ferraris that hosts another battle between Genoa CFC and Venezia FC.
- 5' Koni De Winter has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 14 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 10' Venezia FC is showing some good football. However, Venezia FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 11' The referee calls foul for Mattia Bani. He receives a card.
- 15' A meaty challenge results in booking for Kike Perez on 15.
- 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Issa Doumbia, as he is very good at scoring at Stadio Luigi Ferraris with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 25' The travelling Venezia FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 30' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. John Yeboah made 471 appearances and scored 5 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 35' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 40' 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 Johan Vasquez suffering a number of foals already.
- 45' Genoa CFC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 50' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 55' 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.

- 73' Another substitution for Genoa CFC to replace Junior Messias by Maxwel Cornet on 73 minute.
