  • 5' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 7' Helsingin JK is taking the lead after the goal scored by Tim Vayrynen on 7.
  • 12' 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 Henri Toivomaki suffering a number of foals already.
  • 17' Felipe Brisola has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 22' It’s high time Mihails Konevs made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.

  • 48' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for William Parra.
  • 53' 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.
  • 54' Helsingin JK receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 54.
