Events
Match Events

- 6' Time for substitution for Bristol Rovers FC. Connor Taylor is replaced by James Connolly.
- 11' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 16' Malik Mothersille has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 7 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 21' The travelling Peterborough United FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 26' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 31' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Bristol Rovers FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 36' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Peterborough United FC that had 388 games and scored 599 goals.
- 41' Goal! Joel Randall scores his 21 goal in 198 matches.
- 45' The referee has no hesitation. Luke Thomas is booked for Bristol Rovers FC — card on 45.
- 50' Ireland international Harvey Vale has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 1 assists in the Array this season.
- 52' Kamil Conteh gets the nod from Bristol Rovers FC. He replaces Jordan Rossiter and will look to change the dynamic.
- 57' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Matt Taylor will be considering his options from the bench.
- 62' Peterborough United FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 64' Another substitution for Peterborough United FC to replace James Dornelly by Jadel Katongo on 64 minute.
- 69' Luca Hoole was booked on 69.

- 83' It looks like no one’s ball. Bristol Rovers FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 84' It is a substitution in Peterborough United FC team. Jadel Katongo is replaced by Romoney Crichlow-Noble on 84 minute.
- 89' 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 Kamil Conteh suffering a number of foals already.
- 90' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Josh Knight on 90 minutes.
- The points are shared — Bristol Rovers FC 0-2 Peterborough United FC. Honours even.
