Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Estadio dos Arcos. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 10' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 10 minutes.
- 15' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering GD Chaves that had 144 games and scored 112 goals.
- 20' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 25' Magrao has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 34 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 30' 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.
- 35' Rio Ave FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 40' It’s high time made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 45' 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.
- 50' It looks surprising GD Chaves does not make any changes. Amine Oudrhiri has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 55' Habib Sylla needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 60' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. GD Chaves needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 65' Rio Ave FC is showing some good football. However, Rio Ave FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 70' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 75' GD Chaves started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 75.
- 80' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Hernani made 491 appearances and scored 6 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 85' GD Chaves seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 90' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for GD Chaves.
