Events
Match Events
- 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Gillingham FC and Peterborough United FC get this one started.
- 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Rhys Bennett made 388 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 10' Mohamed Eisa has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 15' A quiet spell here at MEMS Priestfield Stadium. Peterborough United FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 20' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 25' Mark Byrne has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 1 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 30' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 35' Gillingham FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 40' What a strike from Joe Ward! The score is 0-1.
- 45' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Gillingham FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 46' Max Ehmer is having his name booked by the referee on 46.
- 51' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Mohamed Eisa makes it 0-2.
- 51' The referee has no hesitation. Mark Byrne is booked for Gillingham FC — Yellow card on 51.
- 56' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 58' Time for substitution for Gillingham FC. Mikael Ndjoli is replaced by Alex Jakubiak.
- 63' 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 Idris Kanu suffering a number of foals already.
- 64' Mikael Mandron gets the nod from Gillingham FC. He replaces Olly Lee and will look to change the dynamic.
- 66' A meaty challenge results in booking for Josh Knight on 66.
- 71' Dan Butler has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 75' Siriki Dembele makes way for Dan Butler at the 75 minute mark. A tactical switch from Peterborough United FC.
- 80' Mikael Mandron doubles the advantage! 1-2 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 83' Another change for Gillingham FC made on 83 minute. Stuart O'Keefe leaves to be changed by Mark Marshall.
- 86' A change in the Peterborough United FC ranks — Mohamed Eisa exits the field as Alex Woodyard enters on 86.
- 88' Connor Ogilvie has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 88.
- 90' Peterborough United FC make a change. Joe Ward trudges off to be replaced by Idris Kanu on 90 minutes.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Peterborough United FC players.
