Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Carlisle United FC gets underway.
- 5' A quiet spell here at Brunton Park. Carlisle United FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Tom Hamer made 14 appearances and scored 11 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 15' Burton Albion FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 20' 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.
- 25' That is a card for Burton Albion FC. Tom Hamer will be fuming at that decision.
- 28' The England Mark Helm breaks the deadlock on 28 minutes. 0-1!
- 33' Carlisle United FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 36' That looks like a foul for a card for Mark Helm.
- 41' The 33-year-old Max Crocombe has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 46' Another substitution for Burton Albion FC to replace Kwadwo Baah by Rekeem Harper on 46 minute.
- 51' Burton Albion FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 51.
- 53' GOAL! Jordan Gibson fires home to make it 1-1!
- 58' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Burton Albion FC that had 379 games and scored 428 goals.
- 62' The whistle greets Mustapha Carayol as he departs to be replaced by Josh Gordon.
- 67' 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 Joe Garner suffering a number of foals already.
- 72' It’s high time made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 73' Daniel Butterworth makes way for Terry Ablade at the 73 minute mark. A tactical switch from Carlisle United FC.
- 77' Poor challenge from Joe Garner. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
- 81' Fresh legs for Burton Albion FC! Jake Caprice comes on to replace Steve Seddon.
- 86' It looks like no one’s ball. Carlisle United FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 88' What a strike from Joe Garner! The score is 2-1.
- 88' Another change for Carlisle United FC made on 88 minute. Fin Back leaves to be changed by Ben Barclay.
- 90' Another change for Burton Albion FC made on 90 minute. Adedeji Oshilaja leaves to be changed by Cole Stockton.
- Carlisle United FC celebrates a vital win. Three points that could prove pivotal come season's end.
