Edivaldo Everson, one of the legends in the world of international refs, takes control of today's match. Hopefully the Brasil born P.E. teacher, who belongs to the Paraíba association, will be able to compensate for the linesmen, who have been described in the local press as "complete muppets".

Min.3, Goooaaaaaaal !!!, Kevin Rodrigues did some good driblings from the center of the field going very close oponent goalkeeper but when everything seemed that the player was going to kick did a very good pass to Richarlyson Assis, who only has to drive the ball into goal, who did the pass told with his mind 'Score you, because for me would be easier'. The scores now stand at 0-1. Min.9, Gooooool !!!, Aguinaldo Ferreira made a Titus Bramble-esque error there, allowing Jean Paul Paulino to take the ball off him just outside the box, he then buried the ball past Gustavo Assis, who lets the defender know exactly what he thinks of him. The score is now 0-2. Pessimism invaded the stadium terraces. The fans were totally quiet, that goal was a severe blow for them. Min.10, Jonilson de Melo has got some magic feet and shows us all his trickery to get into a great position in the box, unfortunately for him, he's a complete donkey and tripped over his twinkle toes and face planted the ball, which proceeds to roll out harmlessly for a goal kick. Min.22, 'deviated kick of Jean Paul Paulino, in a play which started by a great cross from the right side of Alfeu Mattioni and a wonderful head pass of Vitorino Cardoso right in front of an open goal. He failed ,miserably.'My blind 74-year old grandma would've even scored that'. Min.30 That was a wasted chance by Jonilson de Melo... 1-on-1 with Edmundo Pereira and 5 yards from goal, and he's put it right into the stands where the Sport Club Taguatinga fans are sitting... you can hear the donkey brays ringing from around the stadium! Min.34, Aguinaldo Ferreira put a cross in towards Adelino Carioca at the front post, but Edmundo Pereira came and made a superb punch out in a difficult position. Min.37, It's clear to see that Baltazar Carioca is in pain. He is looking towards the bench and it looks like his injury is serious, as a neutral spectator it's always sad to see someone with a serious injury, but then again, rather him than me. Min.38, Baltazar Carioca is up and running again after a bit of help from the magic sponge. No sub needed here. Min.40, high kick of Associação Desportiva Bahia after a wonderful forward pass through the defense by Emerson Neves to Jean Paulo Mineiro couldn't finish off that great move by Associação Desportiva Bahia. Jean Paulo Mineiro protested about the shirt pulling he was the victim of. The ref is taking no bull today and Jean Paulo Mineiro is booked for complaining. Min.44, Ivan Amarildo ran down the left wing like a train there, cruising past Arthuro Guerreiro, but a slip allowed him to recover and block the cross out for a corner, great work ethic there by Gustavo Assis Min.45, Baltazar Carioca comes to the rescue to prevent Sport Club Taguatinga from scoring, clearing that one off the line after a great corner by Richarlyson Assis.

Min.45, half time here, with the score at 0-2, as they say, it's not over til the fat lady sings, so lets see what the second half brings us. The away team had 53 %. possession of the ball.

Min.49, Gooooool !!!, Jean Paul Paulino scored and is now smiling lots. The score is now 0-3. The fans can't believe this result. Several fans were waving the symbolic white tissues... The manager should watch his head seriously. Unfortunately for them it's not the only problem... several fans are already leaving the stadium and the match isn't over yet! Min.65, Vitorino Cardoso has gone down, with pain written all over his face. Min.66 Vitorino Cardoso has gone down injured, but it looks like he will run it off. Min.66, Augusto Neves is unable to get past Douglas Moraes who steals the ball with a great challenge.Augusto Neves must have been watching too much boring football lately, he's complaining to the ref about a perfectly legal tackle. The ref is taking no bull today and Augusto Neves is booked for complaining. Min.71, Jonilson de Melo sends a poor cross in from the right towards the area, allowing the ball to be cleared by Helton de Mórais, who swiftly goes on the counter attack. The fans are loving it! Min.72, the counterattack was led by Jean Paul Paulino. He tries to lob the keeper who has left his area however the ball goes just wide of the post. Min.80, Emerson Neves shoots from distance, but it will take something special to beat Edmundo Pereira who gathers it with ease. Min.83, Ivan Amarildo can't get away from Edivaldo Barrivieira and loses the ball before he has the chance to send a cross in.
