Events
Match Events

- 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Tamas Nikitscher, as he is very good at scoring at Estadio Municipal de Rio Maior with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 10' It looks surprising Rio Ave FC does not make any changes. Pedro Rosas has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 15' It’s high time Sotiris Sylaidopoulos made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 20' 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.

- 30' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 30 minutes.
- 35' Larra puts Casa Pia AC on the lead.
- 40' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 45' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Rio Ave FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 50' 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.
- 52' What a strike from Jalen Blesa! The score is 1-1.
- 57' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Casa Pia AC that had 136 games and scored 129 goals.
- 58' Sensational shot from Joao Goulart. Casa Pia AC is back in the lead.
- 63' Joao Tome needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 68' Casa Pia AC is showing some good football. However, Casa Pia AC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 73' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Sebastian Perez made 175 appearances and scored 7 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 78' Rio Ave FC looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Jalen Blesa scoring 1 goals.
- 80' A meaty challenge results in booking for Joao Marques on 80.
- 85' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with Rio Ave FC winning 50% of all matches.
- 90' 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 Kaly suffering a number of foals already.
- The final score is 1-1.
