Events

Match Events

0' The game is set. FC Arouca kicks off things out of here…
5' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
10' FC Arouca 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' Sporting Clube de Braga is showing some good football. However, Sporting Clube de Braga are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
20' Hyun-Ju Lee needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
25' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Arouca that had 171 games and scored 181 goals.
30' It’s high time Vasco Seabra made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
35' Supporters expect more eagerness from Nais Djouahra, as he is very good at scoring at Estadio Municipal de Braga with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
40' It looks surprising Sporting Clube de Braga does not make any changes. Joao Moutinho has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
45' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 45 minutes.
46' Time for substitution for Sporting Clube de Braga. Vitor Carvalho is replaced by Paulo Oliveira.
51' Demir Tiknaz has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
55' FC Arouca receives a card for a hard tackle on 55.
60' Sporting Clube de Braga looks like a favorite considering 2 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Pau Victor Delgado scoring 1 goals.
63' Another change for Sporting Clube de Braga made on 63 minute. Leonardo Lelo leaves to be changed by Gabriel Martinez.
65' The FC Arouca manager makes a substitution. Bas Kuipers departs to be replaced by Amadou Dante.
66' Sporting Clube de Braga is taking the lead after the goal scored by Pau Victor Delgado on 66.
71' 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 Pedro Santos suffering a number of foals already.
72' It’s a booking for Sporting Clube de Braga player. Gabriel Martinez gets a card.
76' The Sporting Clube de Braga manager makes a substitution. Joao Moutinho departs to be replaced by Jean-Baptiste Gorby.
