- 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 surprising Paris Saint-Germain FC does not make any changes. Vitinha has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 20' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

- 25' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Paris Saint-Germain FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 30' It’s high time Luis Enrique made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
