Events

Match Events

  • 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at Estadio Heriberto Hulse!
  • 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Sao Paulo FC that had 371 games and scored 405 goals.
  • 10' 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.
  • 15' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 20' Ferreira has been relatively quiet despite scoring 25 goals in his last 327 appearances.
  • 22' Magnificent from Felipe Vizeu! That is 15 goals in 456 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 27' Rodrigo Fagundes, a Brazil , has 9 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 32' 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 Jamal Lewis suffering a number of foals already.
  • 37' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Tobias Figueiredo made 372 appearances and scored 9 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 40' That looks like a foul for a card for Newton.
  • 45' Supporters expect more eagerness from Igor Vinicius, as he is very good at scoring at Estadio Heriberto Hulse with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 50' 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.
  • 55' The 28-year-old Matheusinho has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 60' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 64' It is a substitution in Sao Paulo FC team. Erick is replaced by Ferreira on 64 minute.
  • 68' A tactical swap from Criciuma EC — Jonathan Lemos on, Claudinho off on 68 minutes.
  • 73' Sao Paulo FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 73.
  • 77' The whistle greets Marcos Antonio as he departs to be replaced by Andre Silva.
  • 81' Criciuma EC make a change. Newton trudges off to be replaced by Ronald on 81 minutes.
  • 84' Wellington Rato is replacing Lucas Moura for the Sao Paulo FC side.
  • 87' A goal from the Brazil international Liziero! He fires home on 87 to make it 0-2!
  • 90' Criciuma EC player sees a card in front of him.
  • 90' The crowd applauds Matheusinho as he leaves the pitch. Serginho steps in for Criciuma EC.
  • The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
