Events

Match Events

  • 5' FC Porto are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 10' Guinea international Morlaye Sylla has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 13' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Samu Omorodion makes it 0-1.
  • 16' It’s gonna be a card for Chico Lamba.
  • 21' Chico Lamba is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for FC Porto so far.

  • 31' FC Porto has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 2 of the last 2 meetings.
  • 36' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 41' Daniel Namaso, a Cameroon , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 46' FC Arouca have won 181 goals from 171 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 51' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Alfonso Trezza.
  • 56' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. FC Porto needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 61' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Arouca that had 171 games and scored 181 goals.
  • 62' Nehuen Perez was booked on 62.
  • 64' FC Porto make a change. Goncalo Borges trudges off to be replaced by Daniel Namaso on 64 minutes.
  • 67' The FC Arouca bench stirs into life. Alex Pinto is withdrawn and Puche gets his opportunity.
  • 72' FC Porto is showing some good football. However, FC Porto are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 76' The FC Porto bench stirs into life. Marcano is withdrawn and Ze Pedro Figueiredo gets his opportunity.
  • 77' A stunning finish from Fabio Vieira — that came from absolutely nowhere!
  • 77' FC Arouca make a change. David Simao trudges off to be replaced by Pedro Santos on 77 minutes.

  • 82' Another substitution for FC Arouca to replace Morlaye Sylla by Henrique Araujo on 82 minute.
  • 83' A moment of madness from Fabio Vieira on 83 minutes earns him a card. FC Porto will be frustrated.
  • 85' FC Porto ring the changes. Moura has done his job and it is now time for Zaidu Sanusi to step up.
  • 86' The FC Porto bench stirs into life. Samu Omorodion is withdrawn and William da Silva gets his opportunity.
  • Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 0-2 draw is a fair result on the day.
