Events

Match Events

  • 0' Three points are at stake. Cruzeiro EC host CA Paranaense — let the battle begin!
  • 5' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 10' A quiet spell here at Mineirao. Cruzeiro EC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 15' Goal! Gabriel Veron scores his 8 goal in 386 matches.
  • 20' Pablo Felipe has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 25' Kayke needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 30' CA Paranaense are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 35' CA Paranaense 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.
  • 40' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 45' Cruzeiro EC are deployed in a 4-3-3 today, looking to exploit space against CA Paranaense's 4-2-3-1 shape.
  • 46' CA Paranaense manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Madson is hanging Leonardo Godoy on the field on 46 minute.
  • 51' Lucas Esquivel, a Argentina , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 56' 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 Leo Linck suffering a number of foals already.
  • 58' Another substitution for Cruzeiro EC to replace Ramiro by Alvaro Barreal on 58 minute.
  • 63' A tactical swap from CA Paranaense — Kayke on, Erick off on 63 minutes.
  • 68' Cruzeiro EC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Robert is hanging Arthur Gomes on the field on 68 minute.
  • 72' A tactical swap from CA Paranaense — Pablo Felipe on, Gonzalo Mastriani off on 72 minutes.
  • 75' That is a card for Cruzeiro EC. Ze Ivaldo will be fuming at that decision.
  • 77' A tactical swap from Cruzeiro EC — Lucas Villalba on, Kaiki Bruno off on 77 minutes.
  • 79' Fresh legs for CA Paranaense! Bruno Zapelli comes on to replace Julimar.
  • 84' The energy levels are beginning to show. Moises might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 88' Poor challenge from Thiago Heleno. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
  • 90' Cruzeiro EC receives a card for a hard tackle on 90.
  • 2-0 the final result. CA Paranaense will be bitterly disappointed.
