- 0' What a night it is going to be! AFC Wimbledon welcome Portsmouth FC for this crunch clash at Cherry Red Records Fans' Stadium.
- 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ryan Williams made 357 appearances and scored 15 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 10' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both AFC Wimbledon and Portsmouth FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 15' Portsmouth FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 20' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 25' Nathan Trott has been relatively quiet despite scoring 0 goals in his last 240 appearances.
- 30' AFC Wimbledon currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.

- 50' With 0 assists to his name this season, Mitchell Pinnock is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Portsmouth FC.

- 58' Another substitution for Portsmouth FC to replace John Marquis by Ronan Curtis on 58 minute.
- 63' England international Paul Kalambayi has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 68' Portsmouth FC is showing some good football. However, Portsmouth FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 73' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 77' Anthony Hartigan gets the nod from AFC Wimbledon. He replaces Mitchell Pinnock and will look to change the dynamic.
- 82' Andy Cannon gets the nod from Portsmouth FC. He replaces Marcus Harness and will look to change the dynamic.
- 83' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Sean Raggett.
- 85' The AFC Wimbledon bench stirs into life. Marcus Forss is withdrawn and Kwesi Appiah gets his opportunity.
- 88' Scott Wagstaff was booked on 88.
- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 1-0 draw is a fair result on the day.
