  • 16' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 17' GOAL! Lewis Travis fires home to make it 1-0!
  • 22' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 27' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Liam Manning will be considering his options from the bench.

  • 37' The travelling Bristol City FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
