- 5' Rony, a Brazil , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 10' CR Vasco da Gama are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against CA Paranaense's shape.
- 15' Brazil international Nikao has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 20' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 25' CR Vasco da Gama have won 292 goals from 293 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 30' The home supporters are growing impatient. CR Vasco da Gama must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 35' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His CR Vasco da Gama side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 40' It’s high time Alberto Valentim made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 45' 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.
- 50' CA Paranaense started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 50.
- 55' Both keepers have barely been tested. CR Vasco da Gama and CA Paranaense are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 60' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering CR Vasco da Gama that had 293 games and scored 292 goals.
- 65' It looks surprising CA Paranaense does not make any changes. Thiago Heleno has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 70' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 75' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Wellington made 380 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 80' Raul is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for CR Vasco da Gama tonight.
- 85' 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 Lucho Gonzalez suffering a number of foals already.
- 90' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both CR Vasco da Gama and CA Paranaense are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
- 1-1 the final result. will be bitterly disappointed.
