  • 19' Pape Ndiaye Souare needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 21' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Dynel Simeu makes it 2-0.
  • 26' 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.
  • 31' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 32' What a moment for Herbie Kane! That strike on 32 puts his side firmly in control.
  • 33' What a moment for Herbie Kane! That strike on 33 puts his side firmly in control.
  • 38' Liam Kitching was booked on 38.
  • 39' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Liam Kitching.
  • 44' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
