Events
Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds will turn into a battlefield for Cruzeiro EC and Avai FC.
- 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Cruzeiro EC that had 250 games and scored 211 goals.
- 10' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 15' Cruzeiro EC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 20' Thiago Neves has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 18 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 25' Cruzeiro EC is showing some good football. However, Cruzeiro EC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 30' 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.
- 35' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 36' It’s a booking for Cruzeiro EC player. Thiago Neves gets a Yellow card.
- 41' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Luis Orejuela made 480 appearances and scored 5 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 46' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 51' 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 Ederson suffering a number of foals already.
- 56' Avai FC 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.
- 70' The referee calls foul for Igor Fernandes. He receives a Yellow card.
- 86' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Pedro Rocha.
- 88' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Vinicius Araujo.
