- 20' It is a cagey affair so far. UC Sampdoria in their 3-5-2 trying to find a way past SSC Bari's compact 3-5-2.
- 25' 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 Leonardo Benedetti suffering a number of foals already.
- 30' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Moreno Longo will be considering his options from the bench.
- 35' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
