Events

Match Events

  • 0' Exeter City FC have kicked off against Charlton Athletic FC. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
  • 5' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 6' A goal from the England international Ben Purrington! He fires home on 6 to make it 1-0!
  • 11' Charlton Athletic FC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.

  • 21' England international Chuks Aneke has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 26' Macaulay Gillesphey has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 2 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
  • 31' Will Aimson needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 2 Red cards this season.
  • 36' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 37' That looks like a foul for a card for Terell Thomas.
  • 42' 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.
  • 46' Freddie Ladapo gets the nod from Charlton Athletic FC. He replaces Karoy Anderson and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 51' Sonny Cox has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 56' Exeter City FC is showing some good football. However, Exeter City FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 61' Charlton Athletic FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 64' Chuks Aneke has so much to prove this time. He replaces Daniel Kanu on 64 minute.
  • 69' It looks surprising Exeter City FC does not make any changes. Pierce Sweeney has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 70' Dion Rankine has so much to prove this time. He replaces Yanic Wildschut on 70 minute.
  • 71' Another change for Exeter City FC made on 71 minute. Jack Aitchison leaves to be changed by Millenic Alli.
  • 76' It looks like no one’s ball. Charlton Athletic FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 77' Cheick Diabate gets the nod from Exeter City FC. He replaces Sonny Cox and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 78' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Ryan Woods.
  • 83' 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 Alfie May suffering a number of foals already.
  • 85' Reece Cole gets the nod from Exeter City FC. He replaces Luke Harris and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 87' What a moment for Cheick Diabate! That strike on 87 puts his side firmly in control.
  • 1-1 the final result. will be bitterly disappointed.
