- 10' It looks like no one’s ball. Portugal is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 15' 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.
- 20' Daniel Amartey has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 48 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 25' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 30' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.

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