  • 7' - Maxime Colin has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 12' - looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 17' - Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.

  • 30' - West Ham United FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 30.
  • 35' - 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 Michael Morrison suffering a number of foals already.
  • 40' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Birmingham City FC that had 282 games and scored 302 goals.
  • 45' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.

  • 79' - Felipe Anderson has so much to prove this time. He replaces Xande Silva on 79 minute.
