Events

Match Events

0' KICK OFF: Barnsley FC gets underway.
5' The home supporters are growing impatient. Barnsley FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
10' Bolton Wanderers FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 10.
11' George Thomason has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 11.
16' Over 16 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
21' The travelling Bolton Wanderers FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
25' Assisted by Mael de Gevigney with the perfectly-timed delivery and John McAtee makes no mistake. 1-0!
30' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
32' Poor challenge from John McAtee. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
37' Barnsley FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
42' A quiet spell here at Oakwell Ground. Barnsley FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
47' What composure from Donovan Pines! The USA international strokes it home. 2-0.
51' Time for substitution for Bolton Wanderers FC. Josh Dacres-Cogley is replaced by Jack Iredale.
56' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
61' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
62' Magnificent from Victor Adeboyejo! That is 43 goals in 385 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.

68' The supporters are chanting for Conor Grant. He replaces Nicky Cadden on 68 minute.
70' The Bolton Wanderers FC bench stirs into life. Kyle Dempsey is withdrawn and Edmond-Paris Maghoma gets his opportunity.
75' Bolton Wanderers FC 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.
79' Victor Adeboyejo makes way for Jon Bodvarsson at the 79 minute mark. A tactical switch from Bolton Wanderers FC.
84' Barry Cotter is replacing Adam Phillips for the Barnsley FC side.
89' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 89 minutes.
90' Cameron Jerome was booked on 90.
