Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: Queens Park Rangers FC gets underway.

  • 10' It’s high time Paul Warne made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 15' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 20' 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 Kenzo Goudmijn suffering a number of foals already.
  • 25' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Derby County FC and Queens Park Rangers FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
  • 30' Derby County FC are deployed in a 4-3-3 today, looking to exploit space against Queens Park Rangers FC's 4-2-3-1 shape.
  • 35' Queens Park Rangers FC has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
  • 38' The referee has no hesitation. Eiran Cashin is booked for Derby County FC — card on 38.
  • 43' Derby County FC have won 466 goals from 400 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 48' 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.
  • 53' Over 53 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 54' What a moment for Curtis Nelson! That strike on 54 puts his side firmly in control.

  • 63' Zan Celar has so much to prove this time. He replaces Lucas Andersen on 63 minute.
  • 66' Kane Wilson gets the nod from Derby County FC. He replaces Nathaniel Mendez-Laing and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 71' It looks like no one’s ball. Derby County FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 74' A change in the Derby County FC ranks — Marcus Harness exits the field as Nathaniel Phillips enters on 74.
