  • 5' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 10' It looks surprising CA Mineiro does not make any changes. Durval has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 15' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. CA Mineiro needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 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 Marcao Almeida suffering a number of foals already.
  • 25' Supporters expect more eagerness from Juan Cazares, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 30' The travelling SC Recife supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 35' Gabriel is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for CA Mineiro so far.
  • 40' Sander has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 45' Andrigo is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for SC Recife tonight.
  • 50' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 55' Brazil international Leo Silva has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 60' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both CA Mineiro and SC Recife are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 65' Ernando, a Brazil , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 70' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 70 minutes.
  • 75' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 80' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 85' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 90' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for CA Mineiro players.
