Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Barnsley FC gets underway.
- 5' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 10' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 10 minutes.
- 15' Cardiff City FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 20' It’s high time Neil Harris made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 25' Barnsley 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.
- 30' Conor Chaplin needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 25 Yellow cards this season.
- 35' Marcel Ritzmaier has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 40' named a earlier, and opted for a in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
- 45' Barnsley FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 45.
- 50' 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.
- 55' Joe Bennett has been relatively quiet despite scoring 3 goals in his last 372 appearances.
- 60' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 65' Magnificent from Will Vaulks! That is 23 goals in 357 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 66' GOAL! Callum Paterson scores on 66.
- 71' 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 Alex Smithies suffering a number of foals already.
- 72' Barnsley FC make a change. Jacob Brown trudges off to be replaced by Elliot Simoes on 72 minutes.
- 77' Supporters expect more eagerness from Marlon Pack, as he is very good at scoring at Oakwell Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 82' Cardiff City FC make a change. Joe Ralls trudges off to be replaced by Marlon Pack on 82 minutes.
- 83' Conor Chaplin makes way for Patrick Schmidt at the 83 minute mark. A tactical switch from Barnsley FC.
- 85' Josh Murphy gets the nod from Cardiff City FC. He replaces Junior Hoilett and will look to change the dynamic.
- 88' Robert Glatzel is replacing Callum Paterson for the Cardiff City FC side.
- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 0-2 draw is a fair result on the day.
