Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Vitoria FC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' Sporting Clube de Portugal are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Vitoria FC backline.
  • 9' Magnificent from Nani! That is 49 goals in 125 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 14' Eber Bessa has been relatively quiet despite scoring 6 goals in his last 69 appearances.
  • 19' Zequinha makes no mistake. The score reads 1-1 and Vitoria FC are in front.
  • 24' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 29' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 30' Bruno Fernandes catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 30.
  • 35' 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 Costinha suffering a number of foals already.
  • 40' Portugal international Nuno Reis has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 45' A meaty challenge results in booking for Frederic Mendy on 45.
  • 46' Another change for Sporting Clube de Portugal made on 46 minute. Bas Dost leaves to be changed by Fredy Montero.
  • 51' With 0 assists to his name this season, Jhonder Cadiz is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Sporting Clube de Portugal.
  • 52' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Ruben Micael.
  • 56' Vitoria FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 56.
  • 59' Another change for Sporting Clube de Portugal made on 59 minute. Josip Misic leaves to be changed by Jovane Cabral.
  • 64' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 66' The Portugal Nani breaks the deadlock on 66 minutes. 2-1!
  • 67' The Vitoria FC manager makes a substitution. Costinha departs to be replaced by Eber Bessa.
  • 70' Vitoria FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Hildeberto Pereira is hanging Zequinha on the field on 70 minute.
  • 75' Rodrigo Battaglia has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 1 goals to his name this season.
  • 80' Vitoria FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 85' Radoslav Petrovic is ready to make an impact after coming on for Nani at the 85 minute mark.
  • 88' Rodrigo Battaglia picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 89' Eber Bessa picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 90' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Nuno Reis.
