Events
Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds will turn into a battlefield for CR Flamengo and CA Mineiro.
- 5' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 10' Over 10 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 15' The energy levels are beginning to show. Mauricio Barbieri might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 20' It looks surprising CA Mineiro does not make any changes. Willian Arao has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 25' Leo Silva needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 30' CR Flamengo currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 35' With 0 assists to his name this season, Fabio Santos is clearly more than just a goal scorer for CA Mineiro.
- 40' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. CR Flamengo needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 45' CA Mineiro come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 50' Luan, a Brazil , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 55' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 60' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 65' 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 Henrique Dourado suffering a number of foals already.
- 70' Both keepers have barely been tested. CR Flamengo and CA Mineiro are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 75' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 80' It looks like no one’s ball. CA Mineiro is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 85' Juan Cazares has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 34 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 90' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both CR Flamengo and CA Mineiro are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- CR Flamengo celebrates a vital win. Three points that could prove pivotal come season's end.
