Events
Match Events
- 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — AFC Bournemouth and Southampton FC get this one started.
- 5' It looks surprising Southampton FC does not make any changes. Ryan Bertrand has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 10' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Mark Hughes will be considering his options from the bench.
- 15' Both keepers have barely been tested. AFC Bournemouth and Southampton FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 20' 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 Ryan Fraser suffering a number of foals already.
- 25' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 30' AFC Bournemouth are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 34' Southampton FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 39' The energy levels are beginning to show. Mark Hughes might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 41' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Mario Lemina.
- 46' Danny Ings has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 51' 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.
- 56' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 59' It is a substitution in AFC Bournemouth team. David Brooks is replaced by Junior Stanislas on 59 minute.
- 64' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering AFC Bournemouth that had 349 games and scored 466 goals.
- 66' Another change for Southampton FC made on 66 minute. Mario Lemina leaves to be changed by Stuart Armstrong.
- 71' It’s high time Eddie Howe made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 76' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 77' A change in the AFC Bournemouth ranks — Ryan Fraser exits the field as Jordon Ibe enters on 77.
- 78' Fresh legs for Southampton FC! Shane Long comes on to replace Charlie Austin.
- 79' A tactical swap from Southampton FC — Manolo Gabbiadini on, Danny Ings off on 79 minutes.
- 84' Southampton FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 85' The supporters are chanting for Dan Gosling. He replaces Joshua King on 85 minute.
- 86' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Callum Wilson.
- Game over. The scoreline of 0-0 tells the full story of an entertaining encounter.
