Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Rio Ave FC gets underway.
- 5' Justin de Haas has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
- 10' Oscar Aranda has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 15' Brandon Aguilera is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Rio Ave FC so far.
- 19' Against the run of play, Marcos Vinicios has scored! This game has turned on its head.
- 24' Demir Tiknaz is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for FC Famalicão tonight.
- 29' Nelson Abbey has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 34' The home supporters are growing impatient. FC Famalicão must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 39' 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 Cezary Miszta suffering a number of foals already.
- 44' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 46' Martim Neto gets the nod from Rio Ave FC. He replaces Demir Tiknaz and will look to change the dynamic.
- 51' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 56' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 61' It’s high time Hugo Oliveira made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 66' It is a substitution in FC Famalicao team. Vaclav Sejk is replaced by Simon Elisor on 66 minute.
- 68' Theofanis Bakoulas has so much to prove this time. He replaces Ole Pohlmann on 68 minute.
- 73' A moment of madness from Enea Mihaj on 73 minutes earns him a card. FC Famalicao will be frustrated.
- 77' FC Famalicao ring the changes. Oscar Aranda has done his job and it is now time for Rochinha to step up.
- 82' The referee has no hesitation. Jonathan Panzo is booked for Rio Ave FC — card on 82.
- 84' The referee calls foul for Marious Vrousai. He receives a card.
- 84' It is a substitution in Rio Ave FC team. Jonathan Panzo is replaced by Omar Richards on 84 minute.
- 86' Gil Dias is ready to make an impact after coming on for Marcos Vinicios at the 86 minute mark.
- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 1-0 draw is a fair result on the day.
