Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Fluminense FC kicks off things out of here…

- 10' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 15' The home supporters are growing impatient. Fluminense FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 18' Tobias Figueiredo is replacing Wilker Angel for the Criciuma EC side.
- 23' 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.

- 43' With 1 assists to his name this season, Thiago Silva is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Fluminense FC.

- 50' Diogo Barbosa has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 36 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 55' 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 Jhon Arias suffering a number of foals already.
- 58' The referee calls foul for Facundo Bernal. He receives a card.

- 78' The crowd applauds Facundo Bernal as he leaves the pitch. Marquinhos steps in for Fluminense FC.
- 83' A change in the Criciuma EC ranks — Ronald exits the field as Miguel Trauco enters on 83.
