Events

Match Events

  • 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against CA Mineiro and Botafogo FR has kicked off!
  • 5' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 10' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 15' Botafogo FR seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 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 Edenilson suffering a number of foals already.
  • 23' CA Mineiro is taking the lead after the goal scored by Mateo Cassierra on 23.
  • 27' Alex Telles is having his name booked by the referee on 27.
  • 32' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Botafogo FR needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 37' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Botafogo FR winning 0% of all matches.
  • 42' Botafogo FR looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Arthur Cabral scoring 1 goals.
  • 47' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Tomas Cuello made 160 appearances and scored 12 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 52' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Botafogo FR that had 341 games and scored 352 goals.
  • 57' The travelling Botafogo FR supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 62' It looks like no one’s ball. Botafogo FR is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 67' CA Mineiro is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 72' CA Mineiro is showing some good football. However, CA Mineiro are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 77' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 77 minutes.
  • 82' Supporters expect more eagerness from Junior Alonso, as he is very good at scoring at ARENA MRV with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 87' Botafogo FR started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 87.
  • 90' What an equalizer from Arthur Cabral!
  • 90' It’s a booking for Botafogo FR player. Mateo Ponte gets a card.
  • The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
