- 5' 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.
- 10' Mantova 1911 SSD is showing some good football. However, Mantova 1911 SSD are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 13' It’s gonna be a card for Alessandro Romano.
- 18' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 23' It looks surprising Mantova 1911 SSD does not make any changes. Francesco Bardi has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 26' The Mantova 1911 SSD manager makes a substitution. Davis Mensah departs to be replaced by Leonardo Mancuso.
- 28' That looks like a foul for a card for Ali Dembele.
- 32' Mantova 1911 SSD is taking the lead after the goal scored by Davide Bragantini on 32.
- 37' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Alessandro Romano made 527 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

- 61' 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 Diego Mascardi suffering a number of foals already.
- 66' Mantova 1911 SSD 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.
