- 10' It looks like no one’s ball. Manchester City FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 15' AFC Bournemouth is showing some good football. However, AFC Bournemouth are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 16' Magnificent from Bernardo Silva! That is 66 goals in 452 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
