  • 2' Against the run of play, Emiliano Rigoni has scored! This game has turned on its head.
  • 7' Sao Paulo FC 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.

  • 46' Renzo Saravia is replacing Lucas Ribeiro for the SC Internacional side.
  • 51' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
