Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Barnsley FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Darrell Clarke will be considering his options from the bench.
- 10' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Barnsley FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 15' Barnsley FC currently sit 9 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 20' 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.

- 50' Burton Albion 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.
- 55' 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 Kelechi Nwakali suffering a number of foals already.
