  • 0' - We are underway at Stadio Olimpico, Rome. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' - 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 Ethan Ampadu suffering a number of foals already.
  • 10' - 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.
