Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Crewe Alexandra FC gets underway.
- 5' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 10' Crewe Alexandra FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Oliver Finney on 10.
- 15' Dimitar Mitov has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 3 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 20' Crewe Alexandra FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 20.
- 25' Cambridge 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.
- 26' Goal! Scott Robertson scores his 1 goal in 410 matches.
- 28' The Crewe Alexandra FC manager makes a substitution. Scott Kashket departs to be replaced by Mikael Mandron.
- 33' Cambridge United FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 38' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 43' 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.
- 48' It looks like no one’s ball. Crewe Alexandra FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 53' It looks surprising Crewe Alexandra FC does not make any changes. Rio Adebisi has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 58' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Crewe Alexandra FC that had 96 games and scored 102 goals.
- 63' Crewe Alexandra FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 63.
- 64' Time for substitution for Cambridge United FC. Jack Lankester is replaced by Shilow Tracey.
- 69' It’s high time David Artell made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.

- 76' Another substitution for Crewe Alexandra FC to replace J'Neil Bennett by Callum McFadzean on 76 minute.
- 80' What a strike from Sam Smith! The score is 2-1.
- 85' 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 Kayne Ramsey suffering a number of foals already.
- 89' A meaty challenge results in booking for Kayne Ramsey on 89.
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 2-2.
