Events

Match Events

  • 0' Sao Paulo FC have kicked off against CA Mineiro. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
  • 5' Keno has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 10' Over 10 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 15' CA Mineiro have won 475 goals from 475 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 20' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Jorge Sampaoli will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 25' Magnificent from Igor Gomes! That is 18 goals in 373 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 30' 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 Nathan suffering a number of foals already.
  • 35' 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.

  • 42' A meaty challenge results in booking for Igor Rabello on 42.
  • 46' The CA Mineiro manager makes a substitution. Igor Rabello departs to be replaced by Alan Franco.
  • 51' The 31-year-old Igor Rabello has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 56' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 61' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Sao Paulo FC and CA Mineiro are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 66' The whistle greets Calebe as he departs to be replaced by Eduardo Sasha.
  • 68' It’s a booking for Sao Paulo FC player. Tche Tche gets a Yellow card.
  • 70' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Bruno Alves.
  • 75' That looks like a foul for a Red card for Allan.
  • 78' The supporters are chanting for Matias Zaracho. He replaces Jefferson Savarino on 78 minute.
  • 80' Another change for Sao Paulo FC made on 80 minute. Tche Tche leaves to be changed by Vitor.
  • 83' The Brazil Gabriel breaks the deadlock on 83 minutes. 2-0!
  • 84' Pablo Felipe has so much to prove this time. He replaces Brenner on 84 minute.
  • 86' Marrony has so much to prove this time. He replaces Eduardo Vargas on 86 minute.
  • 87' CA Mineiro make a change. Keno trudges off to be replaced by Nathan on 87 minutes.
