  • 0' We are underway at Campo de Futbol de Vallecas. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' 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 Sergi Guardiola suffering a number of foals already.
  • 10' Cadiz CF are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 15' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.

  • 30' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 35' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Cadiz CF that had 236 games and scored 209 goals.
