  • 10' Jamie Allen has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 7 cards already picked up this season.
  • 15' 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 Gustavo Hamer suffering a number of foals already.
  • 16' Sander Berge makes no mistake. The score reads 0-1 and Sheffield United FC are in front.
  • 20' The deadlock is broken! Viktor Gyokeres gets on the scoresheet on 20 minutes.
  • 21' Coventry City FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Viktor Gyokeres on 21.
  • 26' Coventry City FC have won 484 goals from 384 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 31' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 31 minutes.
  • 36' It looks surprising Coventry City FC does not make any changes. Conor Hourihane has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.

  • 46' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Coventry City FC and Sheffield United FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
  • 51' Sheffield United FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 52' GOAL! Callum O'Hare fires home to make it 3-1!
  • 57' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 59' Callum O'Hare has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 59 minutes.
  • 64' Sheffield United 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.
  • 65' Sheffield United FC make a change. Oliver Norwood trudges off to be replaced by Oliver McBurnie on 65 minutes.
  • 68' Magnificent from Matt Godden! That is 95 goals in 397 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 69' Coventry City FC ring the changes. Kyle McFadzean has done his job and it is now time for Dominic Hyam to step up.
  • 73' Fresh legs for Coventry City FC! Todd Kane comes on to replace Fankaty Dabo.
  • 78' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Mark Robins will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 79' A change in the Sheffield United FC ranks — Ben Osborn exits the field as Iliman Ndiaye enters on 79.
  • 82' Another substitution for Coventry City FC to replace Matt Godden by Martyn Waghorn on 82 minute.
  • 87' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • The points are shared — Coventry City FC 4-1 Sheffield United FC. Honours even.
