Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Burton Albion FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Jonny Smith has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 2 cards already picked up this season.
- 10' George Nurse has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 3 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 15' Shrewsbury Town FC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 20' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 25' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 30' Supporters expect more eagerness from Matthew Pennington, as he is very good at scoring at Pirelli Stadium with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
- 35' The deadlock is broken! Tom Bloxham gets on the scoresheet on 35 minutes.
- 40' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ben Garratt made 96 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 45' Shrewsbury Town FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 50' Shrewsbury Town FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 50.
- 55' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 59' GOAL! Matthew Pennington scores on 59. Assisted by Elliott Bennett
- 64' The Burton Albion FC bench stirs into life. Jonny Smith is withdrawn and Baye Oumar Niasse gets his opportunity.
- 69' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 72' The Burton Albion FC manager makes a substitution. Michael Mancienne departs to be replaced by Harry Chapman.
- 77' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 82' With 0 assists to his name this season, Daniel Udoh is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Burton Albion FC.
- 84' The Shrewsbury Town FC bench stirs into life. Tom Bloxham is withdrawn and Aaron Pierre gets his opportunity.
- 89' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Steve Cotterill will be considering his options from the bench.
- 90' Saikou Janneh is replacing Daniel Udoh for the Shrewsbury Town FC side.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Burton Albion FC.
