Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. CA Mineiro kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
- 10' Santos FC receives a card for a hard tackle on 10.
- 15' Santos FC looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Moises scoring 1 goals.
- 20' CA Mineiro is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 21' The referee shows Santos FC player a card on 21.
- 23' It’s gonna be a card for Cuca.
- 28' It looks surprising CA Mineiro does not make any changes. Mateo Cassierra has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 31' That looks like a foul for a card for Luan Peres.
- 32' That looks like a foul for a card for Lyanco.
- 37' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Alexsander Gomes made 386 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 42' 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 Gonzalo Escobar suffering a number of foals already.
- 47' Bernard needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 52' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 56' Santos FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Christian Oliva is hanging Gustavo Henrique on the field on 56 minute.
- 61' 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.
- 63' Moises puts Santos FC on the lead.
- 68' Gabriel Bontempo has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 18 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 71' Bernard is replacing Natanael for the CA Mineiro side.
- 76' Santos FC is showing some good football. However, Santos FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 80' It is a substitution in CA Mineiro team. Hulk is replaced by Dudu on 80 minute.
- 85' The Santos FC manager makes a substitution. Gabriel Barbosa departs to be replaced by Lautaro Diaz.
- 86' Another substitution for CA Mineiro to replace Tomas Perez by Alexsander Gomes on 86 minute.
- 90' Time for substitution for Santos FC. Gabriel Bontempo is replaced by Thaciano.
- Another three points for Santos FC.
