Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Gillingham FC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' Gillingham FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 8' Oxford United FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Billy Bodin on 8.
  • 11' The referee shows Gillingham FC player a Yellow card on 11.
  • 12' Goal! Cameron Brannagan scores his 52 goal in 366 matches.
  • 17' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Sam Long made 366 appearances and scored 16 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 18' Gillingham FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 18.
  • 19' Goal! Matt Taylor scores his 61 goal in 387 matches.
  • 24' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 29' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 34' Ryan Williams has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 47 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 39' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 44' Olly Lee needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 47' Pontus Dahlberg is having his name booked by the referee on 47.
  • 48' Cameron Brannagan with the second goal in the match!
  • 53' 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 Luke McNally suffering a number of foals already.
  • 55' GOAL! Cameron Brannagan scores on 55. Assisted by Mark Sykes

  • 76' Gillingham FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Gerald Sithole is hanging Mustapha Carayol on the field on 76 minute.
  • 81' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Oxford United FC that had 366 games and scored 485 goals.
  • 83' What a strike from Cameron Brannagan! The score is 1-6.
  • 84' Anthony Forde is replacing Billy Bodin for the Oxford United FC side.
