Events

Match Events

  • 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at Pride Park Stadium!
  • 5' Both keepers have barely been tested. Derby County FC and Middlesbrough FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Derby County FC that had 385 games and scored 452 goals.
  • 14' Kayden Jackson does the damage! The net is bulging and Derby County FC surge ahead!
  • 19' Kane Wilson has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 20' The Derby County FC bench stirs into life. Eiran Cashin is withdrawn and Sonny Bradley gets his opportunity.
  • 25' It is a substitution in Derby County FC team. Kane Wilson is replaced by Ryan Nyambe on 25 minute.
  • 30' Over 30 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 35' 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 Luke Ayling suffering a number of foals already.
  • 40' Derby County FC player sees a card in front of him.
  • 42' A moment of madness from Emmanuel Latte Lath on 42 minutes earns him a card. Middlesbrough FC will be frustrated.
  • 47' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 52' The home supporters are growing impatient. Derby County FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 57' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 62' Ebou Adams has so much to prove this time. He replaces Kenzo Goudmijn on 62 minute.
  • 67' It’s a booking for Derby County FC player. Callum Elder gets a card.
  • 68' Daniel Barlaser gets the nod from Middlesbrough FC. He replaces Aidan Morris and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 73' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 76' Craig Forsyth is replacing David Ozoh for the Derby County FC side.
  • 78' Another change for Middlesbrough FC made on 78 minute. Finn Azaz leaves to be changed by Tommy Conway.
  • 83' The 25-year-old Finn Azaz has been sensational this season — 1 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 88' The energy levels are beginning to show. Paul Warne might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 90' Kayden Jackson has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 90.
  • 90' The supporters are chanting for Josh Coburn. He replaces Hayden Hackney on 90 minute.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Derby County FC players.
