Events

Match Events

0' We are underway at Ewood Park. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
1' The referee shows Blackburn Rovers FC player a card on 1.
3' Jordan Clark was booked on 3.
8' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
13' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Blackburn Rovers FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
18' 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 Zack Nelson suffering a number of foals already.
23' Luton Town FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
28' Blackburn Rovers FC is showing some good football. However, Blackburn Rovers FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
32' Goal! Amario Cozier-Duberry scores his 4 goal in 414 matches.
37' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 37 minutes.
40' Owen Beck does the damage! The net is bulging and Blackburn Rovers FC surge ahead!
45' Luton Town FC come into this ranked 16 in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
50' Both keepers have barely been tested. Blackburn Rovers FC and Luton Town FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
52' Makhtar Gueye picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
57' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Luton Town FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
60' Jacob Brown is having his name booked by the referee on 60.
61' That looks like a foul for a card for Joe Rankin-Costello.
62' The crowd applauds Jacob Brown as he leaves the pitch. Cauley Woodrow steps in for Luton Town FC.
67' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
72' Luton Town FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
73' The referee shows Luton Town FC player a card on 73.
74' A tactical swap from Blackburn Rovers FC — Ryan Hedges on, Amario Cozier-Duberry off on 74 minutes.
75' The supporters are chanting for John Buckley. He replaces Yuki Ohashi on 75 minute.
77' The whistle greets Daiki Hashioka as he departs to be replaced by Joseph Johnson.
82' It is a cagey affair so far. Blackburn Rovers FC in their 4-2-3-1 trying to find a way past Luton Town FC's compact 3-4-3.
85' Another change for Luton Town FC made on 85 minute. Victor Moses leaves to be changed by Zack Nelson.
86' Another substitution for Luton Town FC to replace Carlton Morris by Joe Taylor on 86 minute.
