Events
Match Events
- 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Sport Lisboa e Benfica and Vitória SC get this one started.
- 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Vitória SC that had 394 games and scored 369 goals.
- 10' Sport Lisboa e Benfica are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Vitória SC backline.
- 15' Sport Lisboa e Benfica have won 818 goals from 467 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 20' Tiago Silva, a Portugal , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 25' named a 4-3-3 earlier, and opted for a 4-2-3-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
- 29' Muhammed Kerem Akturkoglu has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 29 minutes.
- 31' That is a card for Sport Lisboa e Benfica. Vangelis Pavlidis will be fuming at that decision.
- 36' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 41' Jose Bica has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 43' The referee calls foul for Joao Mendes. He receives a card.
- 48' It looks like no one’s ball. Sport Lisboa e Benfica is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 53' Sport Lisboa e Benfica are deployed in a 4-3-3 today, looking to exploit space against Vitória SC's 4-2-3-1 shape.
- 58' 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.
- 59' That looks like a foul for a card for Alvaro Carreras.
- 64' The travelling Vitória SC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 68' Zeki Amdouni has so much to prove this time. He replaces Leandro Barreiro Martins on 68 minute.

- 78' The supporters are chanting for Arthur Cabral. He replaces Vangelis Pavlidis on 78 minute.
- 79' The whistle greets Nelson Oliveira as he departs to be replaced by Jose Bica.
- 84' 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 Tomas Handel suffering a number of foals already.
- 86' The crowd applauds Kaio Cesar as he leaves the pitch. Telmo Arcanjo steps in for Vitoria SC.
- 90' The referee has no hesitation. Angel di Maria is booked for Sport Lisboa e Benfica — card on 90.
