  • 10' Juan Cazares has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 15' CA Mineiro 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.
  • 20' It looks like no one’s ball. CA Mineiro is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 25' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Samuel Xavier made 238 appearances and scored 13 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 30' Ceará SC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined CA Mineiro backline.
  • 35' Over 35 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 40' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 45' 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 Joao Lucas suffering a number of foals already.
  • 50' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 55' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 60' CA Mineiro are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 65' CA Mineiro is showing some good football. However, CA Mineiro are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 70' With 0 assists to his name this season, Luan is clearly more than just a goal scorer for CA Mineiro.
  • 75' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Ceará SC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 80' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 85' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 90' 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.
  • Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 2-1 draw is a fair result on the day.
