  • 0' And we are off! Os Belenenses Futebol vs Rio Ave FC — let the football do the talking.
  • 5' The 31-year-old Kiki has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 10' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 15' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Os Belenenses Futebol that had 214 games and scored 141 goals.
  • 20' Bruno Moreira has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 20 minutes.
  • 21' A meaty challenge results in booking for Filipe Augusto on 21.
  • 26' It looks surprising Os Belenenses Futebol does not make any changes. Nuno Santos has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 31' It looks like no one’s ball. Rio Ave FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 35' What composure from Bruno Moreira! The Portugal international strokes it home. 0-2.
  • 40' With 0 assists to his name this season, Matija Ljujic is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Rio Ave FC.
  • 42' A moment of madness from Matija Ljujic on 42 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Os Belenenses Futebol will be frustrated.
  • 46' Another substitution for Os Belenenses Futebol to replace Kiki by Jonatan Lucca on 46 minute.
  • 48' The Croatia Toni Borevkovic breaks the deadlock on 48 minutes. 0-3!
  • 53' Os Belenenses Futebol are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 56' A tactical swap from Os Belenenses FutebolDalcio on, Matija Ljujic off on 56 minutes.
  • 61' Afonso Figueiredo, a Portugal , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 64' Afonso Figueiredo makes way for Matheus Reis at the 64 minute mark. A tactical switch from Rio Ave FC.

  • 79' Time for substitution for Os Belenenses Futebol. Vincent Sasso is replaced by Luis Silva.
  • 84' 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 Zakarya Bergdich suffering a number of foals already.
  • 89' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 90' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Zakarya Bergdich.
