Events

Match Events

  • 0' Three points are at stake. Everton FC host Luton Town FC — let the battle begin!
  • 5' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Everton FC and Luton Town FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 10' Jack Harrison has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 5 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 15' Everton FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 15.
  • 20' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Dwight McNeil made 342 appearances and scored 23 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 25' 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 Pelly-Ruddock Mpanzu suffering a number of foals already.
  • 30' Teden Mengi is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Everton FC tonight.
  • 35' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Everton FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 39' Vitalii Mykolenko has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 39 minutes.
  • 44' Luton Town FC is showing some good football. However, Luton Town FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 49' Luton Town FC have won 465 goals from 382 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 54' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Everton FC that had 319 games and scored 362 goals.
  • 55' GOAL! Jack Harrison fires home to make it 2-0!
  • 60' Chiedozie Ogbene needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 65' Everton FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 66' Time for substitution for Luton Town FC. Andros Townsend is replaced by Tahith Chong.
  • 71' Everton FC are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Luton Town FC's shape.
  • 76' Joseph Johnson has so much to prove this time. He replaces Alfie Doughty on 76 minute.
  • 78' Another change for Everton FC made on 78 minute. Dwight McNeil leaves to be changed by Arnaut Danjuma.
  • 83' It looks surprising Everton FC does not make any changes. Beto has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 88' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
