- 0' It’s Showtime! The match between US Lecce and Spezia Calcio is underway.
- 5' Spezia Calcio 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.
- 10' 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.
- 15' It looks like no one’s ball. US Lecce is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 20' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Spezia Calcio needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 25' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 30' 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 Szymon Zurkowski suffering a number of foals already.
- 35' Salvatore Esposito has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 40' Emanuel Gyasi needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 45' The travelling Spezia Calcio supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 50' US Lecce player sees a Yellow card in front of him.

- 68' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 68 minutes.
