- 0' The game is set. Morecambe FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Cambridge United FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 10' Daniel Crowley needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 14' What a strike from Jack Lankester! The score is 1-0.
- 19' 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.
- 24' Morecambe 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.
- 29' Time for substitution for Morecambe FC. Max Melbourne is replaced by Adam Mayor.
- 30' Adam Mayor is replacing Max Melbourne for the Morecambe FC side.
- 35' A meaty challenge results in booking for Conor McGrandles on 35.
- 40' 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.
- 45' The travelling Morecambe FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.

- 52' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 57' It looks like no one’s ball. Cambridge United FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 62' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 65' Another substitution for Cambridge United FC to replace Conor McGrandles by Liam O'Neil on 65 minute.
- 66' Steve Seddon has so much to prove this time. He replaces James Brophy on 66 minute.
- 71' 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 Donald Love suffering a number of foals already.
- 74' Morecambe FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Caleb Watts is hanging Daniel Crowley on the field on 74 minute.
- 76' The referee calls foul for Lloyd Jones. He receives a Yellow card.
