Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: CR Vasco da Gama gets underway.
  • 5' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 10' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 15' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His SC Recife side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 20' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 25' Werley is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for CR Vasco da Gama tonight.
  • 30' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Fabricio made 289 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 35' Yago Pikachu needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 40' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 45' The travelling CR Vasco da Gama supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 50' It looks surprising SC Recife does not make any changes. Claudio Winck has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 55' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 60' 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 Mailson suffering a number of foals already.
  • 65' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both SC Recife and CR Vasco da Gama are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 70' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 70 minutes.
  • 75' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 80' CR Vasco da Gama are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 85' Ernando has been relatively quiet despite scoring 2 goals in his last 240 appearances.
  • 90' The 29-year-old Bruno Cosendey has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • It finishes all square. SC Recife and CR Vasco da Gama share the spoils 2-1.
