Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Fortaleza EC gets underway.
- 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Grêmio FBPA that had 326 games and scored 383 goals.
- 9' That looks like a foul for a card for Magrao.
- 12' GOAL! Martin Braithwaite scores on 12.
- 17' What an equalizer from Martin Braithwaite!
- 18' It’s gonna be a card for Bruno Pacheco.
- 23' The travelling Fortaleza EC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 24' Goal! Deyverson scores his 57 goal in 386 matches.
- 29' It’s high time Mano Menezes made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 34' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
- 39' Grêmio FBPA started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 39.

- 56' It’s gonna be a card for Deyverson.
- 61' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
