Events

Match Events

  • 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at !
  • 5' It looks like no one’s ball. Santos FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 10' Brazil international Carlinhos has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 15' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 20' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 25' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Santos FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 30' Giovanni has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 35' Ademir Santos is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for America FC tonight.
  • 40' Santos FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 45' The travelling America FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 50' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 55' Santos FC are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against America FC's shape.
  • 60' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Sergio Bernardino will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 65' The 33-year-old Gustavo Henrique has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 70' America FC is showing some good football. However, America FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 75' Over 75 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 80' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Santos FC that had 286 games and scored 356 goals.
  • 85' Gerson Magrao has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 90' 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.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for America FC players.
