Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Bolton Wanderers FC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' Bolton Wanderers FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Exeter City FC backline.
  • 10' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 15' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 18' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Zak Jules on 18 minutes.
  • 23' Both keepers have barely been tested. Bolton Wanderers FC and Exeter City FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 28' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 33' Supporters expect more eagerness from Edmond-Paris Maghoma, as he is very good at scoring at University of Bolton Stadium with 3 goals in the last 3 games.
  • 34' Jack Iredale doubles the advantage! 1-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 39' 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 Viljami Sinisalo suffering a number of foals already.
  • 43' GOAL! Victor Adeboyejo scores on 43. Assisted by Josh Sheehan
  • 46' It is a substitution in Exeter City FC team. Zak Jules is replaced by Dion Rankine on 46 minute.

  • 60' With 0 assists to his name this season, Alex Hartridge is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Bolton Wanderers FC.

  • 64' A tactical swap from Bolton Wanderers FC — Aaron Morley on, Josh Sheehan off on 64 minutes.
  • 65' Jon Bodvarsson has so much to prove this time. He replaces Victor Adeboyejo on 65 minute.
  • 70' Harry Kite has been relatively quiet despite scoring 4 goals in his last 198 appearances.
  • 74' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Dion Charles makes no mistake. 5-0!
  • 75' The whistle greets Edmond-Paris Maghoma as he departs to be replaced by Kyle Dempsey.
  • 76' Bolton Wanderers FC make a change. Dion Charles trudges off to be replaced by Dan N'Lundulu on 76 minutes.
  • 81' Bolton Wanderers FC are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Exeter City FC's shape.
  • 86' Josh Sheehan is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Bolton Wanderers FC tonight.
  • 87' What composure from Kyle Dempsey! The England international strokes it home. 6-0.
  • Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 7-0 draw is a fair result on the day.
