- 1' What a strike from Lewis Bate! The score is 0-1.
- 6' Stockport County FC is showing some good football. However, Stockport County 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 has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 41' Callum Marshall is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Huddersfield Town AFC so far.
- 46' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.

- 71' Supporters expect more eagerness from Brodie Spencer, as he is very good at scoring at John Smith's Stadium with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
