Events
Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for AFC Wimbledon to score. At the same time, Blackpool FC does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 5' England international Nathan Delfouneso has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 10' Mads Bech Sorensen is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Blackpool FC so far.
- 15' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 20' The travelling Blackpool FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 25' Blackpool FC is showing some good football. However, Blackpool FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 30' It’s high time Glyn Peter Hodges made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 35' AFC Wimbledon is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 40' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 45' Blackpool FC have won 466 goals from 384 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 50' Poor challenge from Kiernan Dewsbury Hall. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 55' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. AFC Wimbledon needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 60' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 65' 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 Chris Maxwell suffering a number of foals already.
- 66' Adam Roscrow gets the nod from AFC Wimbledon. He replaces Kwesi Appiah and will look to change the dynamic.
- 71' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both AFC Wimbledon and Blackpool FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 76' 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.
- 77' Fresh legs for AFC Wimbledon! Shane McLoughlin comes on to replace Callum Reilly.
- 80' Blackpool FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Joe Nuttall is hanging Gary Madine on the field on 80 minute.
- 85' It looks surprising Blackpool FC does not make any changes. Matthew Virtue-Thick has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 88' Time for substitution for AFC Wimbledon. Terell Thomas is replaced by Rod McDonald.
- The final score is 0-0.
