Events

Match Events

0' That's the starting whistle at Abbey Stadium. Ninety minutes of football awaits between Cambridge United FC and Barnsley FC.
4' Goal! Dan N'Lundulu scores his 7 goal in 326 matches.
8' Barnsley FC ring the changes. Max Watters has done his job and it is now time for Kelechi Nwakali to step up.
13' Jonathan Russell has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 2 goals to his name this season.
16' Poor challenge from Stephen Humphrys. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
17' A stunning finish from Stephen Humphrys — that came from absolutely nowhere!
17' It’s a booking for Barnsley FC player. Georgie Gent gets a card.
22' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
27' The travelling Barnsley FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
32' Barnsley FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
37' Barnsley FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
42' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
47' Jack Stevens is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Barnsley FC tonight.
49' Brandon Njoku has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 49.
51' Jonathan Russell was booked on 51.
56' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
61' Over 61 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
66' Time for substitution for Cambridge United FC. Brandon Njoku is replaced by Ryan Loft.
71' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Liam Bennett on 71 minutes.
75' The referee shows Cambridge United FC player a card on 75.
78' Shayne Lavery is replacing Dan N'Lundulu for the Cambridge United FC side.
83' 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 Jordan Cousins suffering a number of foals already.
88' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Cambridge United FC and Barnsley FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
90' Cambridge United FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Kelland Watts is hanging James Brophy on the field on 90 minute.
1-1 the final result. will be bitterly disappointed.
