- 5' Goal! Adam Bareiro scores his 20 goal in 169 matches.
- 9' Emanuel Britez is having his name booked by the referee on 9.
- 14' What a strike from Carlos Vinicius! The score is 1-1.
- 19' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Joao Lucas made 382 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 24' It looks surprising Fortaleza EC does not make any changes. Alysson has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 29' Fortaleza EC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.

- 37' 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.

- 44' The referee calls foul for Erick Noriega. He receives a card.
- 46' The supporters are chanting for Matheus Pereira. He replaces Lucas Sasha on 46 minute.
- 51' Gustavo Martins has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 18 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 56' 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 Andre suffering a number of foals already.

- 83' It’s gonna be a card for Matheus Rossetto.
- 88' Grêmio FBPA is showing some good football. However, Grêmio FBPA are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
