Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. SC Internacional kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 10' It looks like no one’s ball. SC Internacional is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 15' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Fluminense FC and SC Internacional are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 20' Fluminense FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 25' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Fluminense FC and SC Internacional are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
- 30' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 35' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jadson made 393 appearances and scored 8 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 40' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 40 minutes.
- 45' Fluminense FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 50' Ayrton Lucas has been relatively quiet despite scoring 18 goals in his last 393 appearances.
- 55' SC Internacional looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Alerrandro scoring 1 goals.
- 60' SC Internacional come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 65' The 29-year-old Iago Borduchi has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 70' Rossi, a Brazil , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 75' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 80' 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.
- 85' Fluminense FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 90' 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 Gum suffering a number of foals already.
- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 0-3 draw is a fair result on the day.
