Paredes picks up the first yellow card of the match after taking down Sanches right in front of the referee.
11' CHANCE! Dybala's shot wide out
Dybala catches everyone off guard with a blistering shot from distance that bounces just wide of the far post! Bravo couldn't have done anything about that had it been on target.
21' Lautaro comes close!
Martinez picks up a loose ball in the midfield, surges forward, and attempts an early shot from an acute angle that was always heading wide of goal.
25' Dybala with a great chance!
A beautiful string of one-touch passes from Paredes, to Lo Celso, to Martinez, to Dybala ends when the latter's stinging shot is parried away by Bravo! That move deserved a goal!
44' Not far away! Lo Celso's shot wide out
Lo Celso tries a shot on the volley from outside the box that skips just left of goal! That looked good coming off his foot!
77' Yellow Card! Pinares booked
Pinares drags back Martinez on the left wing, and the former is shown yellow.
82' Yellow Card! Paredes booked
Pinares was on his way through the backline until his back heel was clipped by Dominguez. The latter picks up the 10th yellow card of the match for his actions.
