Match Events

  • 0' The wait is over. Everton FC get us underway at .
  • 5' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 10' Greg Cunningham has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 1 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 15' Cardiff City FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 20' Both keepers have barely been tested. Everton FC and Cardiff City FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 25' Gylfi Þor Sigurðsson needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 30' 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 Idrissa Gana Gueye suffering a number of foals already.
  • 35' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 40' The 33-year-old Lucas Digne has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 1 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 43' Neil Etheridge picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 48' Cardiff City FC have won 398 goals from 372 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 53' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 53 minutes.
  • 58' Victor Camarasa was booked on 58.
  • 59' A goal from the Iceland international Gylfi THor Sigurdsson! He fires home on 59 to make it 1-0!
  • 63' That is a Yellow card for Cardiff City FC. Kadeem Harris will be fuming at that decision.
  • 67' Another substitution for Cardiff City FC to replace Kadeem Harris by Josh Murphy on 67 minute.
  • 72' 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.
  • 73' The supporters are chanting for Ademola Lookman. He replaces Theo Walcott on 73 minute.
  • 74' A change in the Cardiff City FC ranks — Harry Arter exits the field as Junior Hoilett enters on 74.
  • 77' The whistle greets Bernard as he departs to be replaced by Cenk Tosun.
  • 82' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
