Events
Match Events
- 0' And we are off! Rio Ave FC vs Moreirense FC — let the football do the talking.
- 5' Neto has been relatively quiet despite scoring 3 goals in his last 320 appearances.
- 10' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 15' 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.
- 20' 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 Bilel Aouacheria suffering a number of foals already.
- 25' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Rio Ave FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 30' The 37-year-old Mohamed Abarhoun has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 33' Assisted by Nikola Jambor with the perfectly-timed delivery and Carlos makes no mistake. 1-0!
- 36' Gabrielzinho picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 41' Heriberto Tavares has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 43' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Mamadou Ndiaye.
- 46' Moreirense FC make a change. Bilel Aouacheria trudges off to be replaced by Nene on 46 minutes.
- 51' 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.
- 56' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 61' 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.
- 65' Mamadou Ndiaye makes way for Neto at the 65 minute mark. A tactical switch from Moreirense FC.
- 66' What a strike from Heriberto Tavares! The score is 1-1.
- 69' Heriberto Tavares puts Moreirense FC on the lead.
- 74' Time for substitution for Rio Ave FC. Gabrielzinho is replaced by Bruno Moreira.
- 77' The referee shows Moreirense FC player a Yellow card on 77.
- 82' Arsenio, a Portugal , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 83' Vito Ferreira is ready to make an impact after coming on for Nikola Jambor at the 83 minute mark.
- 88' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 89' A change in the Rio Ave FC ranks — Eliseu Cassama exits the field as Damien Furtado enters on 89.
- 90' Moreirense FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
