Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Burnley FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Josh Laurent has been relatively quiet despite scoring 3 goals in his last 380 appearances.
- 10' Over 10 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 15' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 20' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Scott Parker will be considering his options from the bench.
- 25' James Trafford has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 29' It’s a booking for Coventry City FC player. Norman Bassette gets a card.
- 34' Burnley FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Coventry City FC backline.
- 39' Burnley FC are deployed in a 4-2-3-1 today, looking to exploit space against Coventry City FC's 3-5-2 shape.
- 44' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Burnley FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 47' What composure from Jeremy Sarmiento! The Ecuador international strokes it home. 1-0.
- 52' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 57' Jay Dasilva has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 2 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 62' 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 Luis Binks suffering a number of foals already.
- 63' Jack Rudoni is ready to make an impact after coming on for Jay Dasilva at the 63 minute mark.
- 68' Another substitution for Burnley FC to replace Jeremy Sarmiento by Luca Koleosho on 68 minute.
- 73' Coventry City FC come into this ranked 17 in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 78' Lucas Pires has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 79' A change in the Burnley FC ranks — Jay Rodriguez exits the field as Andreas Hountondji enters on 79.
- 80' Against the run of play, CJ Egan-Riley has scored! This game has turned on its head.
- 85' Coventry City FC ring the changes. Ben Sheaf has done his job and it is now time for Brandon Thomas-Asante to step up.
- 90' Connor Roberts is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Burnley FC tonight.
- What a match! Full time at {STADIUM} — Burnley FC 2-0 Coventry City FC.
