  • 5' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His SK Slovan Bratislava side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering SK Slovan Bratislava that had 66 games and scored 98 goals.
  • 15' Vasil Bozhikov needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 3 Yellow cards this season.
  • 20' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 25' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 30' The home supporters are growing impatient. SK Slovan Bratislava must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 35' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both SK Slovan Bratislava and Sporting Clube de Braga are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 40' Bruno Viana has been relatively quiet despite scoring 6 goals in his last 434 appearances.
  • 42' Andraz Sporar doubles the advantage! 1-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 44' What composure from Rui Fonte! The Portugal international strokes it home. 1-1.
  • 49' It is a cagey affair so far. SK Slovan Bratislava in their trying to find a way past Sporting Clube de Braga's compact .
  • 54' Portugal international Paulinho has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 59' The Sporting Clube de Braga bench stirs into life. Caju is withdrawn and Diogo Viana gets his opportunity.
  • 64' Caju has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 69' Sporting Clube de Braga 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.
  • 70' The deadlock is broken! Mohammed Khadfi gets on the scoresheet on 70 minutes.
  • 72' What a moment for Trincao! That strike on 72 puts his side firmly in control.

  • 83' Galeno is ready to make an impact after coming on for Trincao at the 83 minute mark.
  • 88' 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 Diogo Viana suffering a number of foals already.
  • SK Slovan Bratislava will have plenty to reflect on. Sporting Clube de Braga were simply the better side today.
