Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Royal Antwerp FC gets underway.
- 5' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. FC Porto needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 10' 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.
- 14' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Stephen Eustaquio.
- 19' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 24' 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 Mehdi Taremi suffering a number of foals already.
- 29' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 34' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. David Carmo made 415 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 37' GOAL! Alhassan Yusuf scores on 37.

- 44' The FC Porto manager makes a substitution. Wendell departs to be replaced by Evanilson.
- 45' FC Porto receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 45.
- 46' What an equalizer from Evanilson!
- 51' Royal Antwerp FC is showing some good football. However, Royal Antwerp FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
