Events
Match Events
- 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against EC Bahia and EC Juventude has kicked off!
- 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Jean Lucas, as he is very good at scoring at Arena Fonte Nova with 3 goals in the last 2 games.
- 10' It’s high time Rogério Ceni made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 14' It’s gonna be a card for Hudson.
- 19' 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 Santiago Arias suffering a number of foals already.
- 24' It looks like no one’s ball. EC Juventude is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 27' Jean Lucas puts EC Bahia on the lead.
- 32' 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.

- 52' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 57' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ewerthon made 240 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 58' Goal! Jean Lucas scores his 10 goal in 382 matches.
- 63' EC Juventude manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Matheus Babi is hanging Gabriel Taliari on the field on 63 minute.
