Events

Match Events

  • 0' The ball is rolling at Estadio Heriberto Hulse. Criciúma EC are looking to make home advantage count against EC Vitoria.
  • 5' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering EC Vitoria that had 172 games and scored 128 goals.
  • 15' 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.
  • 17' Willian Oliveira is having his name booked by the referee on 17.
  • 22' EC Vitoria come into this ranked 13 in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 27' That is a card for Criciuma EC. Claudinho will be fuming at that decision.
  • 32' The travelling EC Vitoria supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 33' Dudu is replacing Felipe Vizeu for the Criciuma EC side.
  • 38' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 43' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 45' It’s a booking for Criciuma EC player. Yannick Bolasie gets a card.
  • 46' Allano is ready to make an impact after coming on for Matheusinho at the 46 minute mark.
  • 51' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Criciúma EC and EC Vitoria are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 56' Criciúma EC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 56.
  • 61' 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 Willian Oliveira suffering a number of foals already.
  • 66' EC Vitoria is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 68' GOAL! Janderson Costa fires home to make it 0-1!
  • 69' Raul Caceres makes way for Lepu at the 69 minute mark. A tactical switch from EC Vitoria.
  • 72' Another substitution for Criciuma EC to replace Fellipe Mateus by Arthur Caike on 72 minute.
  • 75' Machado gets the nod from EC Vitoria. He replaces Ricardo Ryller and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 80' That looks like a foul for a card for Lepu.
  • 82' Criciuma EC make a change. Yannick Bolasie trudges off to be replaced by Pedro Rocha on 82 minutes.
  • 84' A change in the EC Vitoria ranks — Willian Oliveira exits the field as Luan enters on 84.
  • 89' The energy levels are beginning to show. Claudio Tencati might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for EC Vitoria players.
