- 15' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.

- 22' Stefan Payne has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 22.
- 27' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Wycombe Wanderers FC that had 364 games and scored 425 goals.
