Events
Match Events
- 0' That's the starting whistle at Estadio Capital do Movel. Ninety minutes of football awaits between FC Paços de Ferreira and Sport Lisboa e Benfica.
- 5' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 7' The Spain defender Alejandro Grimaldo breaks the deadlock on 7 minutes. 0-1!
- 11' A stunning finish from Joao Mario — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 16' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 21' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Juan Delgado made 172 appearances and scored 12 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 26' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Sport Lisboa e Benfica that had 478 games and scored 850 goals.
- 31' It looks surprising Sport Lisboa e Benfica does not make any changes. Goncalo Ramos has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 36' Goncalo Guedes has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 36.
- 37' Goncalo Guedes is having his name booked by the referee on 37.
- 42' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 42 minutes.
- 47' FC Paços de Ferreira are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 52' Alexander Bah has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 2 goals to his name this season.
- 57' FC Paços de Ferreira currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 58' Time for substitution for Sport Lisboa e Benfica. Goncalo Ramos is replaced by Petar Musa.
- 63' It looks like no one’s ball. Sport Lisboa e Benfica is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 68' 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 Jordan Holsgrove suffering a number of foals already.
- 70' A tactical swap from FC Pacos de Ferreira — Adrian Butzke on, Alexandre Guedes off on 70 minutes.
- 71' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Florentino Luis.
- 74' The whistle greets Florentino Luis as he departs to be replaced by Chiquinho.
- 79' FC Paços de Ferreira are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Sport Lisboa e Benfica's shape.

- 83' Another substitution for FC Pacos de Ferreira to replace Erick Ferigra by Luis Bastos on 83 minute.
- 88' Both keepers have barely been tested. FC Paços de Ferreira and Sport Lisboa e Benfica are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 89' Sport Lisboa e Benfica make a change. Joao Mario trudges off to be replaced by David Neres on 89 minutes.
- Another three points for Sport Lisboa e Benfica.
