Events

Match Events

  • 0' And we are off! Grêmio FBPA vs Cruzeiro EC — let the football do the talking.
  • 5' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 10' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 15' What a strike from Ramiro! The score is 0-1.
  • 17' A goal from the Brazil international Arthur Gomes! He fires home on 17 to make it 0-2!
  • 22' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 27' Cruzeiro EC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 32' Supporters expect more eagerness from Vitor Hugo, as he is very good at scoring at Centenario with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 37' Alvaro Barreal has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 1 goals to his name this season.
  • 42' named a 4-2-3-1 earlier, and opted for a 4-3-3 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 45' A meaty challenge results in booking for Cristian Pavon on 45.
  • 46' The crowd applauds Franco Cristaldo as he leaves the pitch. Joao Pedro Pepe steps in for Gremio FBPA.
  • 51' 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.
  • 56' Gustavo Martins has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 18 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 57' Poor challenge from Walter Kannemann. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
  • 60' The Gremio FBPA bench stirs into life. Gustavo Gomes is withdrawn and Alysson gets his opportunity.
  • 63' A tactical swap from Cruzeiro EC — Machado on, Lucas Romero off on 63 minutes.
  • 68' Ze Ivaldo, a Brazil , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 73' A tactical swap from Cruzeiro EC — Mateus Vital on, Matheus Pereira off on 73 minutes.
  • 78' 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 Gustavo Gomes suffering a number of foals already.
  • 81' The referee has no hesitation. Machado is booked for Cruzeiro EC — card on 81.
  • 86' Lucas Villalba gets the nod from Cruzeiro EC. He replaces Kaiki Bruno and will look to change the dynamic.
