Events
Match Events
- 0' It’s Showtime! The match between CR Vasco da Gama and CA Paranaense is underway.
- 5' 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.
- 7' Thiago Mendes is having his name booked by the referee on 7.
- 12' Arthur Dias has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 18 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 17' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering CA Paranaense that had 373 games and scored 371 goals.
- 22' It looks like no one’s ball. CA Paranaense is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 27' Johan Rojas needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 32' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 37' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 42' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 47' CA Paranaense looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker scoring 0 goals.
- 52' 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.
- 57' It’s high time Odair Hellmann made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 62' 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 Robert suffering a number of foals already.
- 67' It looks surprising CR Vasco da Gama does not make any changes. Gilberto Leite has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 72' CR Vasco da Gama is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 77' The travelling CA Paranaense supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 82' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Hugo Moura made 382 appearances and scored 5 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 87' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
