Match Events
- 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at Brentford Community Stadium!
- 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from David Raya, as he is very good at scoring at Brentford Community Stadium with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
- 10' Rotherham United FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 10.
- 15' With 0 assists to his name this season, Ben Wiles is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Brentford FC.
- 20' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Thomas Frank will be considering his options from the bench.
- 25' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 26' GOAL! Bryan Mbeumo scores on 26. Assisted by Sergi Canos
- 31' It looks like no one’s ball. Brentford FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 36' Daniel Barlaser has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 41' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 46' 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 Chiedozie Ogbene suffering a number of foals already.
- 51' The energy levels are beginning to show. Thomas Frank might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 56' It looks surprising Rotherham United FC does not make any changes. Mads Bech Sorensen has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 61' Ivan Toney is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Brentford FC so far.
- 66' Freddie Ladapo is replacing Richard Wood for the Rotherham United FC side.
- 67' Freddie Ladapo has so much to prove this time. He replaces Richard Wood on 67 minute.
- 72' Freddie Ladapo, a Nigeria , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 73' Saman Ghoddoos makes way for Marcus Forss at the 73 minute mark. A tactical switch from Brentford FC.
- 74' The whistle greets Sergi Canos as he departs to be replaced by Tariqe Fosu.
- 75' Marcus Forss has so much to prove this time. He replaces Saman Ghoddoos on 75 minute.
- 76' A change in the Brentford FC ranks — Bryan Mbeumo exits the field as Mads Bidstrup enters on 76.
- 81' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 85' Kieran Sadlier gets the nod from Rotherham United FC. He replaces Ben Wiles and will look to change the dynamic.
- 89' A change in the Brentford FC ranks — Vitaly Janelt exits the field as Mathias Jensen enters on 89.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Rotherham United FC.
