    HALF TIME:
    The deadlock has not been broken but the hosts will feel they should have scored given the number of chances they have had from crosses into the box. The Scorpians, who have had 2 defenders booked, have defended well but need to be more adventurous in the final third.

    ADDED TIME:

    There will be 1 added minute.

    INJURY CONCERN:
    O Colley has gone down, he gingerly gets to his feet and looks okay to continue.

    GOOD SAVE!

    Aboubakar is looking threatening and his header from close range is well saved by the keeper's reflexes.
