- 13' It’s a booking for AC Milan player. Ismael Bennacer gets a Yellow card.
- 18' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ante Rebic made 165 appearances and scored 48 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 23' 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.
