Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Forest Green Rovers FC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' 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 Matthew Pennington suffering a number of foals already.
  • 10' What a strike from Rekeil Pyke! The score is 0-1.
  • 15' 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.
  • 20' Another substitution for Forest Green Rovers FC to replace Jordan Moore-Taylor by Christian Marques on 20 minute.
  • 25' Kyle McAllister needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 30' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 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' Supporters expect more eagerness from Regan Hendry, as he is very good at scoring at New Lawn Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 44' Forest Green Rovers FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 44.
  • 45' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Ben Stevenson.
  • 48' What a strike from Jordan Shipley! The score is 0-2.
  • 53' Forest Green Rovers FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 58' The whistle greets Josh March as he departs to be replaced by Bryan Solhaug Fiabema.
  • 63' Ben Stevenson has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 1 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 67' Christian Saydee is replacing Ryan Bowman for the Shrewsbury Town FC side.
  • 72' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Luke McGee.
  • 76' Carl Winchester is replacing Tom Bayliss for the Shrewsbury Town FC side.
  • 81' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 83' It’s a booking for Shrewsbury Town FC player. Taylor Moore gets a Yellow card.
  • 88' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • The final score is 0-2.
