Match Events

  • 0' What a night it is going to be! AFC Bournemouth welcome Leicester City FC for this crunch clash at Vitality Stadium.
  • 5' Over 5 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Antoine Semenyo made 22 appearances and scored 47 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 15' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both AFC Bournemouth and Leicester City FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
  • 16' Luke Thomas has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 16.
  • 21' named a 4-2-3-1 earlier, and opted for a 4-2-3-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 26' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering AFC Bournemouth that had 335 games and scored 441 goals.
  • 31' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 36' AFC Bournemouth seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 38' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Conor Coady.
  • 43' Leicester City FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 48' 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.
  • 53' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both AFC Bournemouth and Leicester City FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 58' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.

  • 72' The crowd applauds Patson Daka as he leaves the pitch. Facundo Buonanotte steps in for Leicester City FC.
  • 74' Antoine Semenyo makes no mistake. The score reads 1-0 and AFC Bournemouth are in front.
  • 78' The AFC Bournemouth bench stirs into life. Marcos Senesi is withdrawn and Dean Huijsen gets his opportunity.
  • 83' Wout Faes has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 86' Jake Evans gets the nod from Leicester City FC. He replaces Kasey McAteer and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 88' Antoine Semenyo doubles the advantage! 2-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 90' A tactical swap from Leicester City FC — Olabade Aluko on, Victor Kristiansen off on 90 minutes.
  • That’s it! Another goalless match for AFC Bournemouth and Leicester City FC (для сухой ничьи).
