Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Estadio Heriberto Hulse. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' Marquinhos Gabriel needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Grêmio FBPA that had 326 games and scored 383 goals.
  • 15' 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.
  • 19' Criciuma EC player sees a card in front of him.
  • 24' Grêmio FBPA is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 29' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 34' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 39' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 41' A meaty challenge results in booking for Franco Cristaldo on 41.
  • 46' Time for substitution for Criciuma EC. Miguel Trauco is replaced by Ronald.
  • 51' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Criciúma EC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 56' The referee calls foul for Marcelo Hermes. He receives a card.
  • 61' Supporters expect more eagerness from Reinaldo, as he is very good at scoring at Estadio Heriberto Hulse with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 65' Another substitution for Criciuma EC to replace Higor Meritao by Fellipe Mateus on 65 minute.
  • 70' 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 Marcelo Hermes suffering a number of foals already.
  • 72' The whistle greets Martin Braithwaite as he departs to be replaced by Alexander Aravena.
  • 75' Time for substitution for Criciuma EC. Claudinho is replaced by Dudu.
  • 80' It looks like no one’s ball. Criciúma EC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 85' 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.
  • 86' What a strike from Miguel Monsalve! The score is 0-1.
  • 89' It is a substitution in Gremio FBPA team. Yeferson Soteldo is replaced by Edenilson on 89 minute.
