Events
Match Events
- 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — EC Bahia and Sao Paulo FC get this one started.
- 5' Over 5 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 10' 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 Igor Vinicius suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Sao Paulo FC that had 373 games and scored 407 goals.
- 20' The energy levels are beginning to show. Fernando Diniz might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 25' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 30' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 35' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 40' A tactical swap from Sao Paulo FC — Igor Gomes on, Pablo Felipe off on 40 minutes.
- 41' The whistle greets Moises as he departs to be replaced by Giovanni.
- 46' EC Bahia manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Arthur Caike is hanging Elber on the field on 46 minute.
- 48' Another substitution for Sao Paulo FC to replace Juanfran by Igor Vinicius on 48 minute.
- 53' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 58' Reinaldo has been relatively quiet despite scoring 38 goals in his last 373 appearances.
- 61' Time for substitution for EC Bahia. Ronaldo is replaced by Rogerio.
- 66' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 71' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Sao Paulo FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 73' Sao Paulo FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Vitor is hanging Liziero on the field on 73 minute.
- 78' Poor challenge from Tche Tche. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 81' The referee calls foul for Lucas Fonseca. He receives a Yellow card.
- 86' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Fernando Diniz will be considering his options from the bench.
