Events
Match Events
- 0' Temperatures are rising at Arena Fonte Nova as EC Bahia face off against SC Internacional in what promises to be a fascinating contest.
- 5' 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.
- 8' A moment of madness from Alexandro Bernabei on 8 minutes earns him a card. SC Internacional will be frustrated.
- 13' SC Internacional have won 459 goals from 333 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 18' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 23' 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.
- 28' Vitinho, a Brazil , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 33' 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' SC Internacional make a change. Alexandro Bernabei trudges off to be replaced by Gustavo Prado on 46 minutes.
- 51' Willian Jose has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 45 minutes.
- 52' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Gabriel Mercado.
- 57' It looks surprising EC Bahia does not make any changes. Alexandro Bernabei has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 62' SC Internacional is showing some good football. However, SC Internacional are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.

- 78' EC Bahia manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Erick is hanging Nicolas Acevedo on the field on 78 minute.

- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for EC Bahia players.
