Events

Match Events

  • 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Botafogo FR and SE Palmeiras has kicked off!
  • 5' Botafogo FR are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined SE Palmeiras backline.
  • 10' Mauricio needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 15' SE Palmeiras is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 20' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Botafogo FR and SE Palmeiras are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 25' 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.
  • 30' 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 Felipe Anderson suffering a number of foals already.
  • 32' The referee has no hesitation. Anibal Moreno is booked for SE Palmeiras — card on 32.
  • 37' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.

  • 45' Felipe Anderson doubles the advantage! 0-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 50' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Botafogo FR that had 348 games and scored 356 goals.
  • 55' Botafogo FR started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 55.
  • 59' A tactical swap from Botafogo FR — Danilo dos Santos de Oliveira on, Allan off on 59 minutes.
  • 64' It’s high time Abel Ferreira made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 65' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Murilo Cerqueira.
  • 66' Alvaro Montoro is ready to make an impact after coming on for Nathan Ribeiro at the 66 minute mark.
  • 71' Allan gets the nod from SE Palmeiras. He replaces Felipe Anderson and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 74' Danilo dos Santos de Oliveira was booked on 74.
  • 78' The Botafogo FR bench stirs into life. Alexander Barboza is withdrawn and Vitinho gets his opportunity.
  • 83' Agustin Giay is replacing Khellven for the SE Palmeiras side.
