- 10' Hakan Calhanoglu has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 11' A tactical swap from AC Milan — Davide Calabria on, Andrea Conti off on 11 minutes.
- 16' 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 Lucas Biglia suffering a number of foals already.
- 19' Zlatan Ibrahimovic doubles the advantage! 0-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 22' Mehdi Bourabia has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 22.
- 27' Over 27 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 32' A change in the AC Milan ranks — Alessio Romagnoli exits the field as Matteo Gabbia enters on 32.
- 34' Manuel Locatelli catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 34.

- 47' What a strike from Zlatan Ibrahimovic! The score is 1-2.
- 52' A quiet spell here at Mapei Stadium - Citta del Tricolore. AC Milan seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 57' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ismael Bennacer made 391 appearances and scored 9 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 61' Ismael Bennacer catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 61.
- 66' US Sassuolo Calcio is showing some good football. However, US Sassuolo Calcio are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
