Events

Match Events

0' Three points are at stake. Brighton & Hove Albion FC host Aston Villa FC — let the battle begin!
5' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
10' The 31-year-old Morgan Sanson has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
15' It looks surprising Brighton & Hove Albion FC does not make any changes. Neal Maupay has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
20' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Steven Alzate.
21' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Jack Grealish on 21 minutes.
26' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Brighton & Hove Albion FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
31' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Brighton & Hove Albion FC that had 336 games and scored 453 goals.
36' Matty Cash has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 52 cards already picked up this season.
41' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
46' It looks like no one’s ball. Brighton & Hove Albion FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
51' Bertrand Traore needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
56' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ollie Watkins made 344 appearances and scored 138 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
61' Aston Villa FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Ahmed El Mohamady is hanging Matty Cash on the field on 61 minute.
62' The whistle greets Steven Alzate as he departs to be replaced by Adam Lallana.
66' A change in the Aston Villa FC ranks — Bertrand Traore exits the field as Trezeguet enters on 66.
70' A meaty challenge results in booking for Douglas Luiz on 70.
75' The home supporters are growing impatient. Brighton & Hove Albion FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
76' Morgan Sanson is ready to make an impact after coming on for Ross Barkley at the 76 minute mark.
77' The referee calls foul for Leandro Trossard. He receives a Yellow card.
80' Danny Welbeck gets the nod from Brighton & Hove Albion FC. He replaces Neal Maupay and will look to change the dynamic.
85' Douglas Luiz has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
89' The referee shows Aston Villa FC player a Yellow card on 89.
The final score is 0-0.
