Events
Match Events
- 0' That's the starting whistle at Craven Cottage. Ninety minutes of football awaits between Fulham FC and Stoke City FC.
- 5' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
- 10' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 15' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?

- 26' Bobby Reid adds to his 0 season tally! Fulham FC lead 1-0 — and this changes everything.
- 31' Stoke City FC is showing some good football. However, Stoke 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.
- 36' 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 Josh Onomah suffering a number of foals already.
- 37' It is a substitution in Fulham FC team. Josh Onomah is replaced by Ivan Cavaleiro on 37 minute.
- 42' It is a substitution in Stoke City FC team. Stephen Ward is replaced by Bruno Martins Indi on 42 minute.

- 52' Fulham FC has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
- 57' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Sam Clucas made 384 appearances and scored 20 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 60' Ryan Shawcross is having his name booked by the referee on 60.
- 65' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 67' Another change for Fulham FC made on 67 minute. Alfie Mawson leaves to be changed by Denis Odoi.
- 69' Another change for Stoke City FC made on 69 minute. Lee Gregory leaves to be changed by Sam Vokes.
- 74' 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.
- 75' The whistle greets Jordan Cousins as he departs to be replaced by Tyrese Campbell.
- 80' The energy levels are beginning to show. Michael O'Neill might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 84' A change in the Fulham FC ranks — Tom Cairney exits the field as Steven Sessegnon enters on 84.
- 89' Fulham FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Stoke City FC backline.
- 90' Bruno Martins Indi has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 90.
- Stoke City FC will have plenty to reflect on. Fulham FC were simply the better side today.
