Events
Match Events
- 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Bradford City AFC and AFC Wimbledon get this one started.
- 5' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 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 Ben Wilson suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' 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.
- 20' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 25' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 30' The travelling AFC Wimbledon supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 35' With 0 assists to his name this season, Toby Sibbick is clearly more than just a goal scorer for AFC Wimbledon.
- 40' The home supporters are growing impatient. Bradford City AFC must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 45' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Aaron Ramsdale made 335 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 50' It looks surprising AFC Wimbledon does not make any changes. Anthony Wordsworth has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 55' James Hanson, a England , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 60' AFC Wimbledon started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 60.
- 64' Mitchell Pinnock gets the nod from AFC Wimbledon. He replaces Shane McLoughlin and will look to change the dynamic.
- 66' Time for substitution for Bradford City AFC. Eoin Doyle is replaced by George Miller.
- 71' The energy levels are beginning to show. Gary Bowyer might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 76' Bradford City AFC is showing some good football. However, Bradford City AFC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 77' The AFC Wimbledon manager makes a substitution. Joe Pigott departs to be replaced by Rod McDonald.
- 82' AFC Wimbledon have won 247 goals from 236 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
