- 14' 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.
- 19' 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 Bongokuhle Hlongwane suffering a number of foals already.
- 24' Minnesota United FC is showing some good football. However, Minnesota United FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
