Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Ipswich Town FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Burton Albion FC are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Ipswich Town FC's shape.

- 23' What a strike from Thomas O'Connor! The score is 2-1.
- 28' 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 Janoi Donacien suffering a number of foals already.
- 33' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 38' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. John Brayford made 372 appearances and scored 20 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 40' Burton Albion FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Michael Mancienne is hanging Terry Taylor on the field on 40 minute.
- 45' The travelling Ipswich Town FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.

- 62' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 65' The Ipswich Town FC bench stirs into life. Armando Dobra is withdrawn and Macauley Bonne gets his opportunity.
- 66' Another substitution for Ipswich Town FC to replace Louie Barry by Kyle Edwards on 66 minute.
- 71' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Burton Albion FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 76' Lee Evans has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 4 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
