Match Events

0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Accrington Stanley FC to score. At the same time, Lincoln City FC does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
5' A change in the Lincoln City FC ranks — Conor McGrandles exits the field as Teddy Bishop enters on 5.
10' 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 Sean McConville suffering a number of foals already.
15' Lincoln City FC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
20' Lewis Fiorini, a Scotland , has 11 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
25' The 31-year-old Conor McGrandles has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
30' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 30 minutes.
33' The supporters are chanting for Tony Scully. He replaces Ben House on 33 minute.
34' Lincoln City FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Adam Jackson on 34.
39' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Lincoln City FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
44' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
49' It looks like no one’s ball. Accrington Stanley FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
54' Accrington Stanley FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Lincoln City FC backline.
59' Colby Bishop doubles the advantage! 1-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
61' The referee does not hesitate — a Red card for Toby Savin on 61 minutes.
62' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Red card for Toby Savin.
63' Fresh legs for Accrington Stanley FC! Liam Isherwood comes on to replace Jack Nolan.
68' Another substitution for Lincoln City FC to replace Teddy Bishop by John Marquis on 68 minute.
73' A quiet spell here at Wham Stadium. Accrington Stanley FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
77' A tactical swap from Accrington Stanley FC — John O'Sullivan on, Tommy Leigh off on 77 minutes.
82' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
85' A meaty challenge results in booking for Morgan Whittaker on 85.
90' John Marquis has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 90.
Lincoln City FC will have plenty to reflect on. Accrington Stanley FC were simply the better side today.
