- 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Olympique de Marseille and FC Porto is underway.
- 5' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 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.
- 15' It looks like no one’s ball. FC Porto is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 20' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Loum Ndiaye made 320 appearances and scored 7 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 25' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 28' The referee shows Olympique de Marseille player a Yellow card on 28.
- 33' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. FC Porto needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 36' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Morgan Sanson.
- 39' Zaidu Sanusi puts FC Porto on the lead.
- 44' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 44 minutes.
- 49' Boubacar Kamara is having his name booked by the referee on 49.
- 54' A meaty challenge results in booking for Florian Thauvin on 54.

- 59' Another substitution for Olympique de Marseille to replace Luis Henrique by Dimitri Payet on 59 minute.

- 79' The FC Porto manager makes a substitution. Luis Diaz departs to be replaced by Shoya Nakajima.
- 84' 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 Luis Henrique suffering a number of foals already.
- 85' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Dimitri Payet.
- 86' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Sergio Oliveira.
- 90' Another change for FC Porto made on 90 minute. Sergio Oliveira leaves to be changed by Loum Ndiaye.
