Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Shrewsbury Town FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Barnsley FC is showing some good football. However, Barnsley FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 10' Barnsley FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 15' 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.
- 18' Goal! John Marquis scores his 95 goal in 234 matches.
- 23' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 28' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Barnsley FC that had 384 games and scored 488 goals.
- 29' George Nurse is having his name booked by the referee on 29.
- 34' The travelling Shrewsbury Town FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 39' Adam Phillips has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 36 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
- 44' Supporters expect more eagerness from Joe Gauci, as he is very good at scoring at Oakwell Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 46' Time for substitution for Barnsley FC. Dexter Lembikisa is replaced by Max Watters.
- 51' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 56' It’s high time Michael Appleton made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 61' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Marc Roberts made 382 appearances and scored 13 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 64' The Barnsley FC manager makes a substitution. Luca Connell departs to be replaced by Kelechi Nwakali.
- 67' John Marquis with the second goal in the match!
- 72' 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 George Nurse suffering a number of foals already.
- 77' Joshua Earl needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 5 Red cards this season.
- 78' GOAL! Jonathan Russell scores on 78.
- 79' Another change for Shrewsbury Town FC made on 79 minute. Callum Stewart leaves to be changed by Taylor Perry.
- 84' Another substitution for Shrewsbury Town FC to replace George Lloyd by Vadaine Oliver on 84 minute.

- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 1-2.
