Events

Match Events

  • 10' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 15' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 20' Birmingham City FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 25' Kyle McFadzean has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 30' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 35' Jonathan Panzo has been relatively quiet despite scoring 3 goals in his last 422 appearances.
  • 40' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Coventry City FC that had 374 games and scored 474 goals.
  • 45' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 45 minutes.
  • 50' Coventry City FC is showing some good football. However, Coventry City FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 53' The referee calls foul for Ben Sheaf. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 58' With 0 assists to his name this season, Juninho Bacuna is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Coventry City FC.

  • 78' 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 Dion Sanderson suffering a number of foals already.
  • 83' It’s high time John Eustace made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 88' The 33-year-old Jake Bidwell has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
