Events

Match Events

0' KICK OFF: Sao Paulo FC gets underway.
5' Magnificent from Pablo Felipe! That is 53 goals in 380 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
10' It looks like no one’s ball. SC Recife is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
15' 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.
20' The -year-old Lizeiro has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
25' Diego has been relatively quiet despite scoring 2 goals in his last 377 appearances.
30' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
35' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering SC Recife that had 240 games and scored 123 goals.
40' Dani Alves is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Sao Paulo FC so far.
43' The referee shows Sao Paulo FC player a Yellow card on 43.
46' Another change for Sao Paulo FC made on 46 minute. Vitor Bueno leaves to be changed by Luan Santos.
51' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
56' Sao Paulo FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 56.
59' The supporters are chanting for Diego. He replaces Joao Rojas on 59 minute.
64' The travelling Sao Paulo FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
65' SC Recife make a change. Sander trudges off to be replaced by Thiago Neves on 65 minutes.
70' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Marcao Almeida made 240 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
73' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Andre.
73' Pablo Felipe makes way for Luciano Neves at the 73 minute mark. A tactical switch from Sao Paulo FC.
77' The crowd applauds Hernanes as he leaves the pitch. Luciano Juba steps in for SC Recife.
79' Paulinho is having his name booked by the referee on 79.
84' SC Recife is showing some good football. However, SC Recife are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
85' That is a Yellow card for Sao Paulo FC. Leo will be fuming at that decision.
90' Another change for SC Recife made on 90 minute. Andre leaves to be changed by Cristiano do Amaral.
The final score is 0-1.
