Substitutions: Reiziger for Petit (Injury - 26 mn), Frank De Boer for Cocu (Injury - 46 mn) and Dani for Alfonso (59 mn)
Note: Puyol seemingly followed Shevchenko around in the first half, implying obviously a marking task
Incident: Cocu and Petit injured themselves after clashing their heads in a midair challenge for the ball, Petit couldn't continue, Cocu did continued, but his work rate was greatly reduced and was mainly sitting deep in midfield, sometimes looking like a fourth CB since Reiziger was tasked to play in Petit's position but more laterally like a LSB
Frank De Boer played in the same role as Cocu (DMF/CB)
