Events

Match Events

  • 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Fulham FC and Preston North End FC get this one started.
  • 5' Preston North End FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 5.
  • 9' The deadlock is broken! Aleksandar Mitrovic gets on the scoresheet on 9 minutes.
  • 14' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Fulham FC that had 341 games and scored 451 goals.
  • 19' Fulham FC have won 451 goals from 341 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 20' Controversy at the stadium! Tom Cairney argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 25' Preston North End FC ring the changes. Ched Evans has done his job and it is now time for Sean Maguire to step up.
  • 30' Preston North End FC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 34' Fabio Carvalho does the damage! The net is bulging and Fulham FC surge ahead!
  • 39' Fulham FC is showing some good football. However, Fulham FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 41' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Aleksandar Mitrovic makes no mistake. 3-0!
  • 45' Ben Whiteman picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 46' Another change for Preston North End FC made on 46 minute. Joshua Earl leaves to be changed by Bambo Diaby.
  • 51' The travelling Preston North End FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 56' 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 Joe Bryan suffering a number of foals already.
  • 61' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Joshua Earl made 378 appearances and scored 9 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 66' Fulham FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 69' Scott Sinclair is ready to make an impact after coming on for Brad Potts at the 69 minute mark.
  • 70' Another change for Fulham FC made on 70 minute. Harrison Reed leaves to be changed by Jean Michael Seri.
  • 75' Fulham FC make a change. Fabio Carvalho trudges off to be replaced by Bobby Reid on 75 minutes.
  • 77' A change in the Fulham FC ranks — Aleksandar Mitrovic exits the field as Rodrigo Muniz enters on 77.
  • 82' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 87' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 87 minutes.
  • Full Time. Fulham FC beats Preston North End FC
