Events
Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for SC Internacional to score. At the same time, Sao Paulo FC does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Alerrandro made 473 appearances and scored 38 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 10' The travelling Sao Paulo FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 15' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. SC Internacional needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 20' It looks like no one’s ball. SC Internacional is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 23' Goal! Alerrandro scores his 38 goal in 473 matches.
- 28' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Sao Paulo FC that had 371 games and scored 405 goals.
- 33' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 38' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Sao Paulo FC winning 0% of all matches.
- 43' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 46' The Sao Paulo FC manager makes a substitution. Danielzinho departs to be replaced by Cauly.
- 51' 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 Wendell suffering a number of foals already.
- 56' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 56 minutes.
- 61' Sao Paulo FC looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Jonathan Calleri scoring 1 goals.
- 62' Tabata has so much to prove this time. He replaces Braian Aguirre on 62 minute.
- 67' 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.

- 71' The supporters are chanting for Ferreira. He replaces Marcos Antonio on 71 minute.

- 80' The referee calls foul for Paulinho. He receives a card.
- 81' Another substitution for SC Internacional to replace Alan Patrick by Johan Carbonero on 81 minute.
- 84' The supporters are chanting for Andre Silva. He replaces Luciano on 84 minute.
