- 14' The home supporters are growing impatient. US Lecce must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 19' Supporters expect more eagerness from Radu Dragusin, as he is very good at scoring at Stadio Via del Mare with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 24' It looks like no one’s ball. US Lecce is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 29' The energy levels are beginning to show. Roberto D'Aversa might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 34' A quiet spell here at Stadio Via del Mare. Genoa CFC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
