- 18' The travelling GD Estoril Praia supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 23' It’s gonna be a card for Jordan Holsgrove.
- 28' Mateo Flores has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 45 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 32' GD Estoril Praia is taking the lead after the goal scored by Yanis Begraoui on 32.
- 37' Supporters expect more eagerness from Jandro Orellana, as he is very good at scoring at Municipal de Arouca with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 42' GD Estoril Praia looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Xeka scoring 1 goals.
- 47' What an equalizer from Jose Fontan!
- 52' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ignacio De Arruabarrena made 160 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

- 61' 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 Hyun-Ju Lee suffering a number of foals already.
- 65' Alejandro Marques has so much to prove this time. He replaces Xeka on 65 minute.
