Events

Match Events

  • 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Sporting Clube de Braga to score. At the same time, Malmo FF does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
  • 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Hugo Larsson, as he is very good at scoring at Estadio Municipal de Braga with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 10' It looks surprising Malmo FF does not make any changes. Abel Ruiz has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 15' Mohamed Buya Turay needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 20' Anders Christiansen has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 14 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 25' It looks like no one’s ball. Malmo FF is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 30' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 35' Malmo FF is showing some good football. However, Malmo FF are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 36' GOAL! Ricardo Horta scores on 36.
  • 41' It’s high time Artur Jorge made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 46' Alvaro Djalo has so much to prove this time. He replaces Abel Ruiz on 46 minute.
  • 48' It’s a booking for Sporting Clube de Braga player. Paulo Oliveira gets a Yellow card.
  • 53' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Felix Beijmo made 414 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 55' What a strike from Alvaro Djalo! The score is 2-0.
  • 58' A meaty challenge results in booking for Matej Chalus on 58.
  • 59' The supporters are chanting for Hernani Infande. He replaces Rodrigo Gomes on 59 minute.
  • 61' It is a substitution in Malmo FF team. Ola Toivonen is replaced by Isaac Thelin on 61 minute.
  • 66' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Malmo FF that had 248 games and scored 152 goals.
  • 71' 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.
  • 73' Diego Lainez is replacing Ricardo Horta for the Sporting Clube de Braga side.
  • 77' What a strike from Patriot Sejdiu! The score is 2-1.
  • 78' The whistle greets Nuno Sequeira as he departs to be replaced by Cristian Borja.
  • 83' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 88' The travelling Malmo FF supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 90' The referee shows Sporting Clube de Braga player a Yellow card on 90.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 2-1.
