Ferroviária and Maranhão played out a goalless draw in a tense Brasileiro Série C encounter. Neither side could find the net, with the match defined by a string of bookings that kept play fragmented.
The first half saw Erverson Luís dos Santos Alves booked in the 33rd minute, followed by Vitor Prado Barreto just before the break. The second half brought further cautions for Vagalume and Marcos Luiz Alves Tiburcio Filho inside the first hour, and late yellows for Kessinho and Lucas Rodrigues.
With no goals and no team able to seize control, the six yellow cards were the only significant statistic. Both sides will feel they lacked the cutting edge to break the deadlock.
