- 5' It’s high time Henrik Rydström made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 10' It looks surprising Malmo FF does not make any changes. Gabriel Sara has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 15' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 20' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 24' Goal! Erik Botheim scores his 6 goal in 176 matches.
- 29' Abdulkerim Bardakci needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 32' Hugo Bolin is having his name booked by the referee on 32.
- 33' Kerem Demirbay has so much to prove this time. He replaces Davinson Sanchez on 33 minute.
- 38' Malmo FF is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 39' Soren Rieks is having his name booked by the referee on 39.
- 43' What a strike from Elias Jelert Kristensen! The score is 1-1.
- 48' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 48 minutes.
- 52' The referee calls foul for Lucas Torreira. He receives a card.
- 56' Sensational shot from Yunus Akgun. Galatasaray SK is back in the lead.
- 61' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Malmo FF that had 248 games and scored 152 goals.
- 65' Another substitution for Malmo FF to replace Hugo Bolin by Taha Ali on 65 minute.
- 70' 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 Lucas Torreira suffering a number of foals already.
- 74' It is a substitution in Galatasaray SK team. Dries Mertens is replaced by Victor Nelsson on 74 minute.
- 79' 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.
