Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Santos FC gets underway.
- 5' Both keepers have barely been tested. CA Mineiro and Santos FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 10' Over 10 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 12' CA Mineiro is taking the lead after the goal scored by Paulinho on 12.
- 17' Santos FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 22' Santos FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 27' 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.
- 32' 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 Kevyson suffering a number of foals already.
- 37' Mauricio Lemos has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 38' A moment of madness from Otavio on 38 minutes earns him a Yellow card. CA Mineiro will be frustrated.
- 43' Pedrinho is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Santos FC tonight.
- 45' Controversy at the stadium! Rodrigo Battaglia argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- 46' Another change for CA Mineiro made on 46 minute. Otavio leaves to be changed by Alan Franco.
- 51' Guilherme Arana needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 41 Yellow cards this season.
- 56' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both CA Mineiro and Santos FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
- 61' Santos FC is showing some good football. However, Santos FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 66' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 67' Paulinho has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 67 minutes.
- 70' The supporters are chanting for Lucas Braga. He replaces Lucas Lima on 70 minute.
- 72' Mariano catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 72.
- 76' The supporters are chanting for Renzo Saravia. He replaces Mariano on 76 minute.
- 81' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His CA Mineiro side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 83' The CA Mineiro bench stirs into life. Pedrinho is withdrawn and Igor Gomes gets his opportunity.
- 86' The referee calls foul for Dodi. He receives a Yellow card.
- 89' The crowd applauds Stiven Mendoza as he leaves the pitch. Kevyson steps in for Santos FC.
- 90' Lucas Braga was booked on 90.
- The final whistle goes. A composed, disciplined performance from CA Mineiro to claim maximum points.
