Events

Match Events

  • 0' Welcome to Estadio Joao Cardoso that hosts another battle between CD Tondela and Rio Ave FC.
  • 5' Nelson Monte is a natural defender and has been asked to do a very specific job for Rio Ave FC tonight.
  • 10' 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 Fahd Moufi suffering a number of foals already.
  • 15' Rio Ave FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 20' Rio Ave FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 23' CD Tondela ring the changes. Filipe Ferreira has done his job and it is now time for Joao Reis to step up.
  • 28' Rio Ave FC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 33' Gelson Dala has been relatively quiet despite scoring 19 goals in his last 335 appearances.
  • 38' Brazil international Philipe Sampaio has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 43' It looks surprising Rio Ave FC does not make any changes. Toni Borevkovic has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 45' Carlos Mane is ready to make an impact after coming on for Lucas Piazon at the 45 minute mark.
  • 50' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 55' Pawel Kieszek has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 60' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering CD Tondela that had 172 games and scored 179 goals.
  • 65' It looks like no one’s ball. CD Tondela is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 68' Gelson Dala is replacing Nelson Monte for the Rio Ave FC side.
  • 70' Richard is ready to make an impact after coming on for Ruben Fonseca at the 70 minute mark.
  • 74' What a strike from Gelson Dala! The score is 0-1.
  • 79' Another change for CD Tondela made on 79 minute. Jonathan Toro leaves to be changed by Ricardo Valente.
  • 83' Magnificent from Joao Pedro! That is 25 goals in 172 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 88' A quiet spell here at Estadio Joao Cardoso. Rio Ave FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 90' GOAL! Gelson Dala scores on 90. Assisted by Carlos Mane
  • 90' Time for substitution for Rio Ave FC. Nuno Santos is replaced by Messias.
  • With this win, Rio Ave FC is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
