Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Criciúma EC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jan Lucumi made 398 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 10' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 15' Criciúma EC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 20' Over 20 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 25' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Mano Menezes will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 30' Both keepers have barely been tested. Criciúma EC and Fluminense FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 35' Matheusinho needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 5 Yellow cards this season.
  • 40' Criciúma EC is showing some good football. However, Criciúma EC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 45' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Andre.
  • 50' Fluminense FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 53' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Matheusinho makes no mistake. 0-1!
  • 58' 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 Barreto suffering a number of foals already.
  • 61' Fresh legs for Fluminense FC! Jan Lucumi comes on to replace Keno.
  • 66' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Criciúma EC that had 38 games and scored 43 goals.
  • 71' Criciúma EC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 74' Another change for Fluminense FC made on 74 minute. Martinelli leaves to be changed by Alexsander Gomes.
  • 75' It is a substitution in Criciuma EC team. Arthur Caike is replaced by Eder on 75 minute.
  • 80' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Criciúma EC and Fluminense FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 83' Ronald is ready to make an impact after coming on for Claudinho at the 83 minute mark.
  • 84' The Fluminense FC bench stirs into life. Marquinhos is withdrawn and Douglas Costa gets his opportunity.
  • 89' Elias Kaua adds to his 0 season tally! Fluminense FC lead 0-2 — and this changes everything.
  • 90' Newton has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 90.
  • 90' Another change for Criciuma EC made on 90 minute. Marcelo Hermes leaves to be changed by Allano.
  • Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 1-1 draw is a fair result on the day.
