Events

Match Events

  • 0' The wait is over. Vitória SC get us underway at Estadio Dom Afonso Henriques.
  • 5' Tiago Silva has been relatively quiet despite scoring 31 goals in his last 35 appearances.
  • 9' A goal from the Brazil international Isaac Aguiar! He fires home on 9 to make it 0-1!
  • 14' Over 14 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 18' A meaty challenge results in booking for Ze Vitor on 18.
  • 23' Oscar Rivas has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 24' A stunning finish from Tiago Silva — that came from absolutely nowhere!
  • 29' The 27-year-old Gustavo Silva has been sensational this season — 3 goals and 1 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 34' Leo Santos has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 22 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 39' 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.
  • 44' Vitória SC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 46' Dyego Sousa gets the nod from CD Nacional. He replaces Isaac Aguiar and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 49' Nuno Santos doubles the advantage! 0-3 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 54' CD Nacional fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 59' 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 Mikel Villanueva suffering a number of foals already.
  • 64' Another change for Vitoria SC made on 64 minute. Samu leaves to be changed by Joao Mendes.
  • 69' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering CD Nacional that had 266 games and scored 106 goals.
  • 74' named a 4-2-3-1 earlier, and opted for a 4-3-3 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 77' Time for substitution for CD Nacional. Arvin Appiah is replaced by Joao Aurelio.
  • 78' Dieu Michel is ready to make an impact after coming on for Kaio Cesar at the 78 minute mark.
  • 83' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 87' Ze Carlos has so much to prove this time. He replaces Tiago Silva on 87 minute.
  • 88' The whistle greets Gustavo Silva as he departs to be replaced by Telmo Arcanjo.
  • 90' A moment of madness from Tomas Handel on 90 minutes earns him a card. Vitoria SC will be frustrated.
  • 90' The CD Nacional bench stirs into life. Luis Esteves is withdrawn and Leo Santos gets his opportunity.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 2-2.
