Match Events

- 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Sunderland AFC that had 363 games and scored 478 goals.
- 10' It’s high time Johnnie Jackson made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.

- 18' It’s a booking for Charlton Athletic FC player. Sam Lavelle gets a Yellow card.
- 23' Sunderland AFC 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.
- 28' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 33' 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.
- 38' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 40' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Elliot Lee.
- 45' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 45 minutes.

- 84' Dennis Cirken was booked on 84.
- 89' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Mason Burstow made 378 appearances and scored 5 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
