Events
Match Events
- 0' The wait is over. Moreirense FC get us underway at P.D. Comendador Joaquim de Almeida Freitas.
- 5' Sport Lisboa e Benfica come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 10' Moreirense FC is showing some good football. However, Moreirense FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 15' It looks surprising Moreirense FC does not make any changes. Nahuel Ferraresi has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 20' Moreirense FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 25' Goal! Haris Seferovic scores his 68 goal in 482 matches.
- 30' Gian-Luca Waldschmidt has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 11 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 35' Serbia international Lazar Rosic has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 39' That is a Yellow card for Sport Lisboa e Benfica. Alejandro Grimaldo will be fuming at that decision.
- 40' GOAL! Yan Santos scores on 40.
- 45' Pizzi, a Portugal attacking midfielder, has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 50' With 0 assists to his name this season, Lucas is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Sport Lisboa e Benfica.
- 53' Rafael Martins has so much to prove this time. He replaces Yan Santos on 53 minute.
- 58' 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 Helton Leite suffering a number of foals already.
- 59' That is a Yellow card for Moreirense FC. Abdoulaye Ba will be fuming at that decision.
- 64' A moment of madness from Julian Weigl on 64 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Sport Lisboa e Benfica will be frustrated.
- 65' The referee shows Sport Lisboa e Benfica player a Yellow card on 65.
- 65' Fresh legs for Moreirense FC! David Simao comes on to replace Walterson.
- 67' Another substitution for Sport Lisboa e Benfica to replace Julian Weigl by Pizzi on 67 minute.
- 70' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Fabio Pacheco on 70 minutes.
- 73' Nicolas Otamendi picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 76' Another substitution for Sport Lisboa e Benfica to replace Everton by Gian-Luca Waldschmidt on 76 minute.
- 81' Over 81 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 82' Time for substitution for Moreirense FC. Lucas is replaced by Derik Lacerda.
- 87' The travelling Sport Lisboa e Benfica supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- The final score is 1-1.
