Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds Mineirao will turn into a battlefield for Cruzeiro EC and Fluminense FC.
  • 5' Martinelli, a Brazil , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 10' Gabriel has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 15' The 38-year-old Renato Augusto has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.

  • 25' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 25 minutes.
  • 26' It’s gonna be a card for Matheus Pereira.
  • 31' Fluminense FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Lucas Felipe Calegari is hanging Marquinhos on the field on 31 minute.
  • 34' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Diogo Barbosa.
  • 39' 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 Lima suffering a number of foals already.

  • 63' The crowd applauds Machado as he leaves the pitch. Vitor Hugo steps in for Cruzeiro EC.
  • 68' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 70' The whistle greets Gabriel Veron as he departs to be replaced by Arthur Gomes.
  • 75' A quiet spell here at Mineirao. Cruzeiro EC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 76' Fluminense FC ring the changes. Renato Augusto has done his job and it is now time for David Terans to step up.
  • 77' It is a substitution in Fluminense FC team. Douglas Costa is replaced by Keno on 77 minute.
  • 80' Thiago Santos picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 82' Fresh legs for Cruzeiro EC! Lucas Villalba comes on to replace Robert.
  • 87' The travelling Fluminense FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • Fluminense FC will have plenty to reflect on. Cruzeiro EC were simply the better side today.
