- 15' It’s high time Sotiris Sylaidopoulos made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 18' GOAL! Ole Pohlmann scores on 18. Assisted by Diogo Oliveira
- 23' Kiki has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 28' AVS seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 32' What a strike from Tomane! The score is 1-1.
- 37' 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.
- 42' 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.
- 47' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Rio Ave FC that had 313 games and scored 209 goals.

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