Events
Match Events
- 0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Barnsley FC is hosting Peterborough United FC for another epic battle.
- 5' It looks surprising Peterborough United FC does not make any changes. Bobby Thomas has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 6' Jonson Clarke-Harris has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 6 minutes.
- 11' Peterborough United FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 16' Herbie Kane needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 21' 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 Frankie Kent suffering a number of foals already.
- 26' With 0 assists to his name this season, Devante Cole is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Peterborough United FC.
- 31' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 36' 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.
- 41' Supporters expect more eagerness from Jordan Williams, as he is very good at scoring at Oakwell Stadium with 4 goals in the last 4 games.
- 46' The Barnsley FC bench stirs into life. James Norwood is withdrawn and Max Watters gets his opportunity.
- 51' Kwame Poku catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 51.
- 56' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 61' Peterborough United FC have won 608 goals from 397 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 63' Josh Knight has so much to prove this time. He replaces Kwame Poku on 63 minute.
- 67' Barnsley FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Josh Benson is hanging Barry Cotter on the field on 67 minute.
- 72' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 76' What composure from Jack Taylor! The Ireland international strokes it home. 0-2.
- 81' 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.
- 86' Liam Kitching has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 41 cards already picked up this season.
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 0-2.
