Events
Match Events
- 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Sao Paulo FC and EC Bahia get this one started.
- 5' It looks surprising EC Bahia does not make any changes. Ernando has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 10' Jonas, a Brazil , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 13' Luan is ready to make an impact after coming on for Liziero at the 13 minute mark.
- 18' 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.
- 23' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 23 minutes.
- 28' The 38-year-old Anderson Martins has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 33' EC Bahia has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 1 meetings.
- 34' That is a Yellow card for EC Bahia. Douglas Augusto will be fuming at that decision.
- 38' The referee has no hesitation. Luan is booked for Sao Paulo FC — Yellow card on 38.
- 43' 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 Eric Ramires suffering a number of foals already.
- 46' Time for substitution for Sao Paulo FC. Alexandre Pato is replaced by Helio Junio.
- 51' Controversy at the stadium! Gregore argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- 56' A quiet spell here at . EC Bahia seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 61' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 66' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 69' The Sao Paulo FC bench stirs into life. Hernanes is withdrawn and Nene gets his opportunity.
- 69' Jonas was booked on 69.
- 70' The crowd applauds Douglas Augusto as he leaves the pitch. Eric Ramires steps in for EC Bahia.
- 72' Jonas has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Red card on 72.
- 75' Controversy at the stadium! Moises argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- 80' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Cuca will be considering his options from the bench.
- 83' A change in the EC Bahia ranks — Elber exits the field as Rogerio enters on 83.
- 88' Fernandao needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 0-0 draw is a fair result on the day.
