Events
Match Events

- 5' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
- 10' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both CA Paranaense and Cruzeiro EC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 15' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both CA Paranaense and Cruzeiro EC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
- 20' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 25' That is a Yellow card for CA Paranaense. Leo Pereira will be fuming at that decision.
- 29' It is a substitution in CA Paranaense team. Leo Cittadini is replaced by Bruno Nazario on 29 minute.
- 31' Cruzeiro EC ring the changes. Egidio has done his job and it is now time for Dodo to step up.
- 36' CA Paranaense are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 41' It looks surprising Cruzeiro EC does not make any changes. Caca has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 45' The referee has no hesitation. Sassa is booked for Cruzeiro EC — Yellow card on 45.
- 50' CA Paranaense ring the changes. Bruno Guimaraes has done his job and it is now time for Camacho to step up.
- 55' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 59' Sassa picks up a Red card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.

- 82' 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 Rony suffering a number of foals already.
- 87' CA Paranaense 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.

- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 0-0 draw is a fair result on the day.
