Events

Match Events

  • 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — AFC Bournemouth and Manchester City FC get this one started.
  • 5' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 10' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 10 minutes.
  • 15' 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 David Brooks suffering a number of foals already.
  • 20' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 25' Over 25 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 30' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 35' Manchester City FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 35.
  • 40' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 45' Manchester City FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Riyad Mahrez is hanging Kevin De Bruyne on the field on 45 minute.
  • 48' A change in the Manchester City FC ranks — John Stones exits the field as Vincent Kompany enters on 48.
  • 53' Vincent Kompany is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for AFC Bournemouth so far.
  • 55' Riyad Mahrez does the damage! The net is bulging and Manchester City FC surge ahead!
  • 60' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 65' A meaty challenge results in booking for Nicolas Otamendi on 65.
  • 70' The travelling Manchester City FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 75' David Brooks makes way for Lys Mousset at the 75 minute mark. A tactical switch from AFC Bournemouth.
  • 80' Oleksandr Zinchenko has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 13 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 83' AFC Bournemouth ring the changes. Nathaniel Clyne has done his job and it is now time for Diego Rico to step up.
  • 84' The referee has no hesitation. Kyle Walker is booked for Manchester City FC — Yellow card on 84.
  • 89' Manchester City FC have won 1028 goals from 439 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 90' Gabriel Jesus is ready to make an impact after coming on for Sergio Aguero at the 90 minute mark.
  • The final score is 0-1.
