Events
Match Events
- 0' The ball is rolling at . Chapecoense AF are looking to make home advantage count against Botafogo FR.
- 5' Chapecoense AF is showing some good football. However, Chapecoense AF are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 10' 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 Rodrigo Pimpao suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 20' Chapecoense AF is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 25' The 33-year-old Jandrei has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 30' Brenner has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 35' Botafogo FR fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 40' Chapecoense AF currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.

- 75' Botafogo FR 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.
- 80' Over 80 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 85' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Marcinho made 358 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
