- 0' We are underway at Abanca Balaidos. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Brais Mendez, as he is very good at scoring at Abanca Balaidos with 6 goals in the last 4 games.
- 6' What a strike from Thiago Galhardo! The score is 1-0.
- 11' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Eduardo Coudet will be considering his options from the bench.
- 16' With 1 assists to his name this season, Fran Beltran is clearly more than just a goal scorer for RC Celta de Vigo.

- 25' Loum Ndiaye has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 25.
- 30' 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 Joselu suffering a number of foals already.
- 34' Iago Aspas has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 34 minutes.

- 57' Goal! Franco Cervi scores his 16 goal in 481 matches.
- 62' Deportivo Alaves ring the changes. Tomas Pina has done his job and it is now time for Pere Pons to step up.
- 64' Ximo Navarro catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Red card on 64.
- 66' A goal from the Spain international Iago Aspas! He fires home on 66 to make it 4-0!
- 68' RC Celta de Vigo manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Renato Tapia is hanging Fran Beltran on the field on 68 minute.
