Live comments

  • 0' - The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Blackpool FC is hosting Rochdale AFC for another epic battle.
  • 5' - It looks surprising Blackpool FC does not make any changes. Ellis Simms has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 10' - Blackpool FC is showing some good football. However, Blackpool FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 15' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Sullay Kaikai, as he is very good at scoring at Bloomfield Road with 6 goals in the last 6 games.
  • 20' - 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.
  • 21' - Goal! Sullay Kaikai scores his 16 goal in 265 matches.
  • 26' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 31' - The travelling Rochdale AFC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 36' - Rochdale AFC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 41' - It looks like no one’s ball. Blackpool FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 46' - Blackpool 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.
  • 51' - 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.
  • 54' - The whistle greets Marvin Ekpiteta as he departs to be replaced by Luke Garbutt.
  • 59' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 60' - Time for substitution for Rochdale AFC. Conor Shaughnessy is replaced by Kwadwo Baah.
  • 65' - 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 Stephen Humphrys suffering a number of foals already.
  • 68' - Time for substitution for Rochdale AFC. Gabriel Osho is replaced by Ryan McLaughlin.
  • 70' - Grant Ward has so much to prove this time. He replaces Ken Dougall on 70 minute.
  • 75' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Rochdale AFC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 80' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Blackpool FC that had 237 games and scored 313 goals.
  • 85' - Kevin Stewart has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 38 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 90' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Rochdale AFC.
