Goal Timing (This Season)
Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Ashton Gate Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 1' A goal from the England international Jamie Paterson! He fires home on 1 to make it 1-0!
- 6' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Bristol City FC and Birmingham City FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 11' Maxime Colin needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 16' Over 16 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 21' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 23' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Scott Hogan makes no mistake. 1-1!
- 28' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Famara Diedhiou made 387 appearances and scored 46 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 30' What a strike from Andreas Weimann! The score is 2-1.
- 35' It looks surprising Birmingham City FC does not make any changes. Wes Harding has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 40' Birmingham City FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 45' The energy levels are beginning to show. Josep Clotet Ruiz might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 50' Birmingham City FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 55' 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 Jay Dasilva suffering a number of foals already.
- 58' The supporters are chanting for Filip Benkovic. He replaces Jay Dasilva on 58 minute.
- 63' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 66' Adam Nagy is replacing Han-Noah Massengo for the Bristol City FC side.
- 71' The home supporters are growing impatient. Bristol City FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 76' Another substitution for Birmingham City FC to replace Jeremie Bela by Wes Harding on 76 minute.
- 81' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 82' Harlee Dean is ready to make an impact after coming on for Scott Hogan at the 82 minute mark.
- 87' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Bristol City FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 89' Another change for Birmingham City FC made on 89 minute. Jude Bellingham leaves to be changed by Caolan Boyd Munce.
- Another three points for Birmingham City FC.
