- 5' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 10' 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 Pozuelo suffering a number of foals already.
- 13' What a moment for Mbwana Samatta! That strike on 13 puts his side firmly in control.
- 18' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ruslan Malinovskyi made 316 appearances and scored 53 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 20' What a strike from Mbwana Samatta! The score is 0-2.
- 25' Supporters expect more eagerness from Joseph Paintsil, as he is very good at scoring at Stadion am Kehrweg with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
