Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds Estadio da Luz will turn into a battlefield for Sport Lisboa e Benfica and FC Porto.
  • 5' Julian Weigl is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Sport Lisboa e Benfica so far.
  • 10' Sport Lisboa e Benfica 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.
  • 15' Nicolas Otamendi has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 74 cards already picked up this season.
  • 16' The referee shows Sport Lisboa e Benfica player a Yellow card on 16.
  • 21' 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 Adel Taarabt suffering a number of foals already.
  • 24' Sport Lisboa e Benfica player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 29' The energy levels are beginning to show. Sergio Conceicao might look to freshen things up shortly.

  • 35' Valentino Lazaro needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 40' A meaty challenge results in booking for Pepe on 40.
  • 45' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 45 minutes.
  • 50' Sport Lisboa e Benfica have won 818 goals from 467 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.

  • 53' The referee calls foul for Darwin Nunez. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 54' Controversy at the stadium! Darwin Nunez argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 59' 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.
  • 61' The supporters are chanting for Haris Seferovic. He replaces Gil Dias on 61 minute.
  • 62' Valentino Lazaro was booked on 62.
  • 65' Wenderson Galeno gets the nod from FC Porto. He replaces Evanilson and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 70' Zaidu Sanusi has been relatively quiet despite scoring 8 goals in his last 312 appearances.
  • 71' Jan Vertonghen is having his name booked by the referee on 71.
  • 73' The supporters are chanting for Joao Mario. He replaces Valentino Lazaro on 73 minute.

  • 83' The referee calls foul for Joao Mario. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 84' Sport Lisboa e Benfica player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 87' A tactical swap from FC Porto — Stephen Eustaquio on, Vitor Ferreira off on 87 minutes.
  • 90' Roman Yaremchuk picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 0-1 draw is a fair result on the day.
