- 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Cardiff City FC and Tottenham Hotspur FC has kicked off!
- 3' What a strike from Harry Kane! The score is 0-1.
- 8' 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.
- 12' Goal! Christian Eriksen scores his 30 goal in 385 matches.
- 17' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Son Heungmin made 385 appearances and scored 105 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 22' Tottenham Hotspur FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 22.
- 26' What a strike from Son Heungmin! The score is 0-3.
- 31' Tottenham Hotspur FC is showing some good football. However, Tottenham Hotspur FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 36' 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.
- 41' 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 Soul Bamba suffering a number of foals already.
- 46' Time for substitution for Cardiff City FC. Josh Murphy is replaced by Junior Hoilett.
- 51' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 53' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Soul Bamba.
- 58' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 59' It is a substitution in Cardiff City FC team. Victor Camarasa is replaced by Joe Ralls on 59 minute.
- 64' Cardiff City FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 69' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 72' Nathaniel Mendez-Laing has so much to prove this time. He replaces Bobby Reid on 72 minute.
- 76' Another substitution for Tottenham Hotspur FC to replace Son Heungmin by Oliver Skipp on 76 minute.
- 81' It looks like no one’s ball. Cardiff City FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 86' The whistle greets Dele Alli as he departs to be replaced by Llorente.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Cardiff City FC.
