Events
Match Events

- 10' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 15' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. EC Bahia needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 20' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 25' It looks surprising Avai FC does not make any changes. Joao Paulo has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 28' Another substitution for EC Bahia to replace Arthur Caike by Rogerio on 28 minute.
- 33' 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.
- 38' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Nino Paraiba.
- 40' Goal! Artur scores his 7 goal in 325 matches.
- 45' 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.
- 46' Another substitution for Avai FC to replace Eduardo Kunde by Luan Pereira on 46 minute.
- 47' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Iury.
- 52' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 57' Avai FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 62' EC Bahia 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.
- 67' 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 Eduardo Kunde suffering a number of foals already.
- 69' Time for substitution for EC Bahia. Eric Ramires is replaced by Shaylon.
- 71' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Luan Pereira.
- 72' Time for substitution for Avai FC. Feliciano Brizuela is replaced by Matheus Ferreira.
- 77' EC Bahia is showing some good football. However, EC Bahia are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 82' Eric Ramires needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 84' Elton is replacing Artur for the EC Bahia side.
- 89' It looks like no one’s ball. EC Bahia is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
