Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Fulham FC gets underway.

- 15' Fulham FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 20' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Pep Guardiola will be considering his options from the bench.

- 30' Ferran Torres has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 4 goals to his name this season.
- 35' Alphonse Areola needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.

- 60' A goal from the Argentina international Sergio Aguero! He fires home on 60 to make it 0-3!
- 63' Aleksandar Mitrovic gets the nod from Fulham FC. He replaces Ruben Loftus-Cheek and will look to change the dynamic.

- 75' The whistle greets Ruben Dias as he departs to be replaced by Eric Garcia.
- 80' The Fulham FC manager makes a substitution. Ivan Cavaleiro departs to be replaced by Antonee Robinson.
- 85' Fernandinho is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Fulham FC tonight.
