Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at The MKM Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.

  • 40' Blackburn Rovers FC come into this ranked 8 in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.

  • 77' Poor challenge from Owen Beck. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.

  • 84' The Blackburn Rovers FC bench stirs into life. Yuki Ohashi is withdrawn and Makhtar Gueye gets his opportunity.
  • 85' The crowd applauds Todd Cantwell as he leaves the pitch. Joe Rankin-Costello steps in for Blackburn Rovers FC.
  • 90' That looks like a foul for a card for Makhtar Gueye.
