- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Kostas Manolas made 514 appearances and scored 8 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 15' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 15 minutes.
- 20' The travelling SSC Napoli supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 25' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering KRC Genk that had 316 games and scored 528 goals.
- 30' KRC Genk 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.
- 33' The whistle greets Mario Rui as he departs to be replaced by Kevin Malcuit.
- 38' Kevin Malcuit has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 41 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 43' 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.
- 48' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. SSC Napoli needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 50' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Junya Ito.

- 65' A meaty challenge results in booking for Arkadiusz Milik on 65.
- 70' 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 Kalidou Koulibaly suffering a number of foals already.
- 72' The whistle greets Arkadiusz Milik as he departs to be replaced by Llorente.
