5' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
10' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
15' Sport Lisboa e Benfica are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.

33' The travelling Sporting Clube de Braga supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
38' Fredrik Aursnes has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
43' 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 Nicolas Otamendi suffering a number of foals already.
48' Cher Ndour, a Italy , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.

77' Joao Moutinho picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
82' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Roger Schmidt will be considering his options from the bench.
83' A meaty challenge results in booking for Cher Ndour on 83.
83' Cher Ndour makes way for Bruma at the 83 minute mark. A tactical switch from Sporting Clube de Braga.
