Events
Match Events

- 10' Liam Feeney, a England , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.

- 25' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 30' Supporters expect more eagerness from Glenn Whelan, as he is very good at scoring at Highbury Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 35' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Fleetwood Town FC and Blackpool FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 40' 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.
- 45' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 45 minutes.
- 47' A change in the Blackpool FC ranks — Gary Madine exits the field as Joe Nuttall enters on 47.
- 52' It looks surprising Blackpool FC does not make any changes. Gary Madine has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 57' Jack Sowerby needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 62' Joe Nuttall has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 64' Poor challenge from James Husband. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.

- 80' Nathan Delfouneso makes way for Armand Gnanduillet at the 80 minute mark. A tactical switch from Blackpool FC.
- 85' 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 Kiernan Dewsbury Hall suffering a number of foals already.
- 86' A change in the Fleetwood Town FC ranks — Barrie McKay exits the field as Jack Sowerby enters on 86.
- What a match! Full time at {STADIUM} — Fleetwood Town FC 0-0 Blackpool FC.
