- 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Barnsley FC and West Bromwich Albion FC is underway.
- 5' Michal Helik needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 1 Red cards this season.
- 10' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 10 minutes.
- 15' 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 Darnell Furlong suffering a number of foals already.
- 20' West Bromwich 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.
- 25' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 30' It looks like no one’s ball. Barnsley FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 35' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 40' It looks surprising Barnsley FC does not make any changes. Josh Benson has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 45' 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.
- 50' 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.
- 52' The referee calls foul for Jake Livermore. He receives a Yellow card.
- 57' Matt Clarke has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 47 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 62' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 64' It is a substitution in Barnsley FC team. Josh Benson is replaced by Devante Cole on 64 minute.

- 84' Clarke Oduor has so much to prove this time. He replaces Aaron Leya Iseka on 84 minute.
- 89' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Barnsley FC that had 385 games and scored 496 goals.
- 90' The whistle greets Jordan Hugill as he departs to be replaced by Adam Reach.
- 90' It’s a booking for Barnsley FC player. Michal Helik gets a Yellow card.
