Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Barnsley FC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' Kyle Dempsey has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 10' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 10 minutes.
  • 11' Poor challenge from George Thomason. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
  • 16' Bolton Wanderers FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 21' Jon Bodvarsson needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 25' The deadlock is broken! John McAtee gets on the scoresheet on 25 minutes.
  • 30' Jordan Williams has been relatively quiet despite scoring 7 goals in his last 385 appearances.
  • 32' That looks like a foul for a card for John McAtee.
  • 37' The 25-year-old Edmond-Paris Maghoma has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 42' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 47' The USA Donovan Pines breaks the deadlock on 47 minutes. 2-0!
  • 51' A change in the Bolton Wanderers FC ranks — Josh Dacres-Cogley exits the field as Jack Iredale enters on 51.
  • 56' The travelling Bolton Wanderers FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 61' 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.
  • 62' A goal from the Nigeria international Victor Adeboyejo! He fires home on 62 to make it 2-1!
  • 67' Barnsley FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 68' A tactical swap from Barnsley FC — Conor Grant on, Nicky Cadden off on 68 minutes.
  • 70' Edmond-Paris Maghoma has so much to prove this time. He replaces Kyle Dempsey on 70 minute.
  • 75' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Barnsley FC and Bolton Wanderers FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 79' A tactical swap from Bolton Wanderers FC — Jon Bodvarsson on, Victor Adeboyejo off on 79 minutes.
  • 84' The supporters are chanting for Barry Cotter. He replaces Adam Phillips on 84 minute.
  • 89' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 90' Bolton Wanderers FC receives a card for a hard tackle on 90.
  • 90' Fresh legs for Barnsley FC! Sam Cosgrove comes on to replace Devante Cole.
  • Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 2-2 draw is a fair result on the day.
