  • 0' AFC Bournemouth have kicked off against Crystal Palace FC. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
  • 5' 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 Adam Smith suffering a number of foals already.
  • 10' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 15' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Crystal Palace FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.

  • 58' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both AFC Bournemouth and Crystal Palace FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
