- 10' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 15' It’s high time Rogério Ceni made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 20' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Matheus Henrique suffering a number of foals already.
- 25' It looks surprising EC Bahia does not make any changes. Rodriguinho has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 26' What a strike from Everaldo! The score is 0-1.

- 62' It’s gonna be a Red card for Matheus Henrique.
