  • 5' The travelling FC Vizela supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 10' It looks surprising FC Arouca does not make any changes. Dylan Saint-Louis has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 11' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Rafa Mujica makes no mistake. 1-0!
  • 13' Matheus Pereira was booked on 13.
  • 16' Joao Escoval catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 16.

  • 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.
  • 37' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Daniel Sousa will be considering his options from the bench.
