Events
Match Events
- 0' That's the starting whistle at Estadio do Rio Ave Futebol Clube. Ninety minutes of football awaits between Rio Ave FC and CD Aves.
- 5' Both keepers have barely been tested. Rio Ave FC and CD Aves are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 10' Over 10 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 15' 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.
- 20' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Rio Ave FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 21' Said Ahmed Said picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 26' Portugal international Ruben Oliveira has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 29' The referee shows CD Aves player a Yellow card on 29.
- 34' The 31-year-old Ponck has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 36' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Rodrigo makes no mistake. 0-1!
- 41' 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.
- 46' 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 Quentin Beunardeau suffering a number of foals already.
- 50' Rodrigo picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 55' The referee shows CD Aves player a Yellow card on 55.

- 71' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 72' Fresh legs for Rio Ave FC! Gelson Dala comes on to replace Filipe Augusto.
- 77' Nikola Jambor, a Croatia , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.

- 83' Magnificent from Balde! That is 46 goals in 147 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
