Events
Match Events
- 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Sporting Clube de Braga and Moreirense FC is underway.
- 5' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Sporting Clube de Braga and Moreirense FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 10' It looks surprising Sporting Clube de Braga does not make any changes. Fransergio has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 15' Andraz Sporar has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 7 cards already picked up this season.
- 20' Moreirense FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 25' 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.
- 30' Moreirense FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 30.
- 32' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Goncalo Franco on 32 minutes.
- 36' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Fransergio.
- 41' What a strike from Abel Ruiz! The score is 1-0.
- 46' Lucas Piazon has so much to prove this time. He replaces Fransergio on 46 minute.
- 51' Both keepers have barely been tested. Sporting Clube de Braga and Moreirense FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 56' Ricardo Esgaio is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Moreirense FC so far.
- 58' It’s a booking for Sporting Clube de Braga player. Almoatasembellah Ali gets a Yellow card.
- 60' Sporting Clube de Braga make a change. Almoatasembellah Ali trudges off to be replaced by Joao Novais on 60 minutes.
- 65' 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 Abdoulaye Ba suffering a number of foals already.
- 69' Fabio Pacheco makes way for Filipe Soares at the 69 minute mark. A tactical switch from Moreirense FC.
- 74' It looks like no one’s ball. Moreirense FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 77' Sporting Clube de Braga manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Nicolas Gaitan is hanging Ricardo Horta on the field on 77 minute.
- 79' A meaty challenge results in booking for Felipe Pires on 79.
- 80' The Moreirense FC bench stirs into life. Walterson is withdrawn and Yan Santos gets his opportunity.
- 85' Yan Santos is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Sporting Clube de Braga tonight.
- 90' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 1-0 draw is a fair result on the day.
