Events

Match Events

  • 15' Eros Mancuso has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 1 goals to his name this season.
  • 20' SC Internacional is showing some good football. However, SC Internacional are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 24' Alan Patrick adds to his 3 season tally! SC Internacional lead 1-0 — and this changes everything.
  • 29' It looks like no one’s ball. SC Internacional is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.

  • 36' Thiago Maia, a Brazil , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 41' Tomas Pochettino needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 46' The travelling Fortaleza EC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 49' That is a card for Fortaleza EC. Eros Mancuso will be fuming at that decision.
