Events
Match Events
- 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Crystal Palace FC and Nottingham Forest FC has kicked off!
- 5' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Crystal Palace FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 7' That is a card for Nottingham Forest FC. Nicolas Dominguez will be fuming at that decision.
- 12' 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 Daichi Kamada suffering a number of foals already.
- 17' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 22' Nicolas Dominguez has been relatively quiet despite scoring 19 goals in his last 169 appearances.
- 27' Ramon Sosa has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 25 appearances with only 3 goals this season.
- 32' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Crystal Palace FC that had 324 games and scored 376 goals.
- 37' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 42' Eberechi Eze has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 47' It looks like no one’s ball. Nottingham Forest FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 52' Jean-Philippe Mateta is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Nottingham Forest FC so far.
- 57' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 57 minutes.
- 59' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Matz Sels.
- 60' Magnificent from Eberechi Eze! That is 63 goals in 382 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 61' Another change for Crystal Palace FC made on 61 minute. Adam Wharton leaves to be changed by Will Hughes.
- 63' Daniel Munoz was booked on 63.
- 64' Murillo makes no mistake. The score reads 1-1 and Nottingham Forest FC are in front.
- 65' The crowd applauds Nicolas Dominguez as he leaves the pitch. Ramon Sosa steps in for Nottingham Forest FC.
- 67' Ibrahim Sangare has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 67.
- 72' Nottingham Forest FC have won 435 goals from 374 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 74' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Neco Williams on 74 minutes.
- 76' The supporters are chanting for Eddie Nketiah. He replaces Jean-Philippe Mateta on 76 minute.
- 77' Daichi Kamada picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 78' It’s a booking for Nottingham Forest FC player. Morgan Gibbs-White gets a card.
- 81' Time for substitution for Nottingham Forest FC. Murillo is replaced by Morato.
- 82' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Ryan Yates on 82 minutes.
- 87' Time for substitution for Crystal Palace FC. Daichi Kamada is replaced by Jefferson Lerma.
