Events

Match Events

  • 0' Three points are at stake. FC Arouca host Vitoria SC — let the battle begin!
  • 5' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 7' Goal! Ricardo Quaresma scores his 12 goal in 125 matches.
  • 12' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Pepa will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 17' FC Arouca are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Vitoria SC backline.
  • 22' FC Arouca is showing some good football. However, FC Arouca are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 23' The referee shows Vitoria SC player a Yellow card on 23.
  • 28' Oscar Estupinan, a Colombia , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 33' Ruben Lameiras has been relatively quiet despite scoring 26 goals in his last 331 appearances.
  • 37' Controversy at the stadium! Ricardo Quaresma argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 42' Rafa Soares is a natural defender and has been asked to do a very specific job for Vitoria SC tonight.
  • 47' Over 47 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.

  • 59' It is a substitution in FC Arouca team. Eboue Kouassi is replaced by Pite on 59 minute.

  • 65' Fresh legs for Vitoria SC! Ruben Lameiras comes on to replace Ricardo Quaresma.
  • 70' 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 Andre Silva suffering a number of foals already.
  • 71' Oday Dabbagh has so much to prove this time. He replaces Eugeni Valderrama on 71 minute.

  • 87' Another change for Vitoria SC made on 87 minute. Tiago Silva leaves to be changed by Nicolas Janvier.
  • The final score is 2-2.
