Events

Match Events

  • 5' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 10' Rafa Mujica is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Vitória SC so far.
  • 15' Both keepers have barely been tested. Vitória SC and FC Arouca are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 20' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 25' 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 Afonso Freitas suffering a number of foals already.
  • 27' That is a Yellow card for Vitoria SC. Andre Silva will be fuming at that decision.
  • 32' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Vitória SC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.

  • 45' Controversy at the stadium! Nino Galovic argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 49' The Spain Rafa Mujica breaks the deadlock on 49 minutes. 0-1!

  • 61' It is a substitution in Vitoria SC team. Afonso Freitas is replaced by Nelson Da Luz on 61 minute.
