Events
Match Events
- 0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Fluminense FC is hosting EC Bahia for another epic battle.
- 5' 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 Thiago Santos suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' Fluminense FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 15' Over 15 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 20' The travelling EC Bahia supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 25' Diogo Barbosa has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 25.
- 30' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Rogério Ceni will be considering his options from the bench.
- 35' The energy levels are beginning to show. Mano Menezes might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 36' A meaty challenge results in booking for Thiago Santos on 36.

- 46' A stunning finish from Elias Kaua — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 46' The Fluminense FC manager makes a substitution. Thiago Santos departs to be replaced by Antonio Carlos.
- 51' Both keepers have barely been tested. Fluminense FC and EC Bahia are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 56' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Fluminense FC that had 403 games and scored 440 goals.
- 61' Everaldo has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 33 appearances with only 2 goals this season.
- 62' It’s a booking for Fluminense FC player. Thiago Silva gets a card.
- 62' Another change for EC Bahia made on 62 minute. Everaldo leaves to be changed by Thaciano.
- 67' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.

- 72' The Fluminense FC manager makes a substitution. Elias Kaua departs to be replaced by Keno.
- 76' The Fluminense FC manager makes a substitution. Kevin Serna departs to be replaced by Lima.
- 81' EC Bahia is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 83' Another substitution for Fluminense FC to replace Ganso by John Kennedy on 83 minute.
- 84' Controversy at the stadium! Carlos De Pena argues furiously but the card stands.
- 89' Gabriel Teixeira has been relatively quiet despite scoring 14 goals in his last 403 appearances.
- 90' The referee calls foul for Cauly. He receives a card.
- That’s it! Another goalless match for Fluminense FC and EC Bahia (для сухой ничьи).
