00:49energetic pressing and quick passing combinations to trouble the Premier League side. A brief stoppage
00:55occurred during the first half after a medical emergency in the crowd forced referee Maurizio
01:00Mariani to halt the match temporarily. The situation was quickly brought under control before play
01:06resumed inside a tense stadium atmosphere. The decisive moment arrived early in the second half
