- 0' The game is set. Brentford FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Over 5 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 10' Marcus Forss is a natural centre-forward and has been asked to do a very specific job for AFC Bournemouth tonight.
- 15' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 20' 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.
- 25' That is a Yellow card for Brentford FC. Pontus Jansson will be fuming at that decision.
- 30' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 35' AFC Bournemouth is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 40' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both AFC Bournemouth and Brentford FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
- 45' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 50' The referee has no hesitation. Pontus Jansson is booked for Brentford FC — Red card on 50.

- 55' A tactical swap from Brentford FC — Mads Bech Sorensen on, Tariqe Fosu off on 55 minutes.
- 60' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Jonathan Woodgate will be considering his options from the bench.
- 61' Jack Stacey has so much to prove this time. He replaces Adam Smith on 61 minute.
- 66' 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 Arnaut Danjuma suffering a number of foals already.
- 68' The referee calls foul for Marcus Forss. He receives a Yellow card.
- 73' The travelling Brentford FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.

- 77' Magnificent from Bryan Mbeumo! That is 88 goals in 448 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 77' Sam Surridge is replacing Jack Wilshere for the AFC Bournemouth side.
- 80' Ivan Toney is having his name booked by the referee on 80.
- 81' AFC Bournemouth ring the changes. Jefferson Lerma has done his job and it is now time for Ben Pearson to step up.
- 86' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
- 87' A moment of madness from Vitaly Janelt on 87 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Brentford FC will be frustrated.
- 90' Saman Ghoddoos is ready to make an impact after coming on for Mads Roerslev at the 90 minute mark.
