- 15' Ruslan Litvinov is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for PFK Sochi so far.
- 20' FK Spartak Moskva started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 20.
- 25' Pavel Maslov has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 30 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 30' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. FK Spartak Moskva needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 35' 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.
- 37' That is a Yellow card for FK Spartak Moskva. Daniil Khlusevich will be fuming at that decision.
- 41' Vladislav Sarveli is ready to make an impact after coming on for Timofey Shipunov at the 41 minute mark.

- 78' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
