Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds Ewood Park will turn into a battlefield for Blackburn Rovers FC and Bolton Wanderers FC.
  • 5' It’s high time Phil Parkinson made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 10' 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 Luke Murphy suffering a number of foals already.
  • 11' The whistle greets Mark Beevers as he departs to be replaced by Marc Wilson.
  • 16' Blackburn Rovers 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.
  • 21' Ben Alnwick has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 50 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 26' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Luca Connell made 318 appearances and scored 5 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 30' What a strike from Ben Brereton! The score is 1-0.
  • 35' Blackburn Rovers FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 35.
  • 39' It is a substitution in Bolton Wanderers FC team. Joe Williams is replaced by Luke Murphy on 39 minute.
  • 44' 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.
  • 46' Blackburn Rovers FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Elliott Bennett is hanging Lewis Travis on the field on 46 minute.
  • 50' What a strike from Adam Armstrong! The score is 2-0.
  • 55' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Blackburn Rovers FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 60' Supporters expect more eagerness from Craig Noone, as he is very good at scoring at Ewood Park with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 65' It is a substitution in Blackburn Rovers FC team. Jack Rodwell is replaced by John Buckley on 65 minute.
  • 70' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 70 minutes.
  • 75' The supporters are chanting for Joe Muscatt. He replaces Harry Brockbank on 75 minute.
  • 76' It is a substitution in Blackburn Rovers FC team. Bradley Dack is replaced by Daniel Butterworth on 76 minute.
  • 81' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Bolton Wanderers FC that had 318 games and scored 383 goals.
  • 86' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • That’s it! Another goalless match for Blackburn Rovers FC and Bolton Wanderers FC (для сухой ничьи).
