- 0' The game is set. Spezia Calcio kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Spezia Calcio is showing some good football. However, Spezia Calcio are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Cosenza Calcio that had 76 games and scored 84 goals.
- 14' Salvatore Elia puts Spezia Calcio on the lead.
- 19' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 24' Spezia Calcio started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 24.
- 29' What a strike from Rachid Kouda! The score is 2-0.
- 34' Charlys needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 39' The travelling Cosenza Calcio supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 44' It looks surprising Cosenza Calcio does not make any changes. Ales Mateju has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 48' What a strike from Francesco Esposito! The score is 3-0.
- 53' A meaty challenge results in booking for Przemyslaw Wisniewski on 53.
- 58' 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 Francesco Cassata suffering a number of foals already.
- 63' Tommaso D'Orazio has so much to prove this time. He replaces Giacomo Ricci on 63 minute.
- 64' The referee calls foul for Giuseppe Di Serio. He receives a card.
- 69' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 74' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 77' Charlys is replacing Mario Gargiulo for the Cosenza Calcio side.
- 82' Another substitution for Spezia Calcio to replace Salvatore Elia by Salvador Ferrer on 82 minute.
- 87' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 88' The Cosenza Calcio manager makes a substitution. Aldo Florenzi departs to be replaced by Leonardo Contiero.
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 3-1.
