Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Cardiff City FC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 10' England international Perry Ng has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 15' It looks like no one’s ball. West Bromwich Albion FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 20' A quiet spell here at Cardiff City Stadium. West Bromwich Albion FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 21' Brandon Thomas-Asante has so much to prove this time. He replaces Jed Wallace on 21 minute.
  • 26' Kyle Bartley has been relatively quiet despite scoring 15 goals in his last 377 appearances.
  • 31' Cardiff City 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.
  • 36' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jayson Molumby made 336 appearances and scored 12 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 41' Cardiff City FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 46' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 50' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Jeremy Sarmiento makes no mistake. 0-1!
  • 55' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 55 minutes.
  • 56' Another change for Cardiff City FC made on 56 minute. Mahlon Romeo leaves to be changed by Jonathan Panzo.
  • 61' West Bromwich Albion FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 65' Fresh legs for West Bromwich Albion FC! Tom Fellows comes on to replace Grady Diangana.
  • 66' Another change for Cardiff City FC made on 66 minute. Callum Robinson leaves to be changed by Rubin Colwill.
  • 71' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Erol Bulut will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 74' Okay Yokuslu makes way for Jayson Molumby at the 74 minute mark. A tactical switch from West Bromwich Albion FC.
  • 75' Cardiff City FC make a change. Ollie Tanner trudges off to be replaced by Kion Etete on 75 minutes.
  • 80' 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 Brandon Thomas-Asante suffering a number of foals already.
  • 85' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 87' Poor challenge from Josh Bowler. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
  • 88' Cardiff City FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 88.
  • 89' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Darnell Furlong.
  • 90' Matt Phillips was booked on 90.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for West Bromwich Albion FC players.
