Events

Match Events

  • 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at Estadio de Sao Miguel!
  • 4' Mikel Villanueva has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 4 minutes.
  • 8' That is a Yellow card for CD Nacional. Vincent Thill will be fuming at that decision.
  • 13' CD Santa Clara have won 261 goals from 316 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 14' Lincoln was booked on 14.
  • 19' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His CD Santa Clara side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 24' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 24 minutes.
  • 29' 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 Pedrao suffering a number of foals already.
  • 34' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 35' Against the run of play, Rui Costa has scored! This game has turned on its head.
  • 40' Lucas Kal is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for CD Santa Clara tonight.
  • 45' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 46' A tactical swap from CD Nacional — Marco Matias on, Joao Camacho off on 46 minutes.
  • 47' Rui Costa makes no mistake. The score reads 3-0 and CD Santa Clara are in front.
  • 52' It is a cagey affair so far. CD Santa Clara in their trying to find a way past CD Nacional's compact .
  • 57' CD Nacional are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 62' A tactical swap from CD Nacional — Brayan Riascos on, Bryan Rochez off on 62 minutes.
  • 66' Rui Correia does the damage! The net is bulging and CD Nacional surge ahead!
  • 67' Eber Bessa is ready to make an impact after coming on for Mabrouk Rouai at the 67 minute mark.
  • 69' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Rafael Ramos.
  • 69' Time for substitution for CD Santa Clara. Allano is replaced by Ukra.
  • 74' Ruben Micael has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 77' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Kalindi de Souza.
  • 77' It is a substitution in CD Nacional team. Vincent Thill is replaced by Kenji Gorre on 77 minute.
  • 79' Against the run of play, Carlos has scored! This game has turned on its head.
  • 84' The whistle greets Lincoln as he departs to be replaced by Nene.
  • 89' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering CD Nacional that had 270 games and scored 112 goals.
  • 90' Poor challenge from Rui Correia. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
  • 90' A change in the CD Santa Clara ranks — Rafael Ramos exits the field as Pierre Sagna enters on 90.
