Events
Match Events
- 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Hull City AFC and Millwall FC get this one started.
- 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Liam Millar made 267 appearances and scored 14 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 10' With 0 assists to his name this season, Ivor Pandur is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Hull City AFC.
- 15' The 24-year-old Joe Gelhardt has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 20' 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.
- 25' Anthony Patterson has been relatively quiet despite scoring 2 goals in his last 369 appearances.
- 30' Ryan John Giles is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Hull City AFC so far.
- 35' It’s high time Sergej Jakirović made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 40' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 45' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 45 minutes.
- 50' Millwall FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 52' The referee shows Millwall FC player a card on 52.
- 57' It looks like no one’s ball. Hull City AFC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 62' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 67' Millwall FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 72' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 77' Oliver McBurnie has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 82' Matt Crooks is a natural midfielder and has been asked to do a very specific job for Millwall FC tonight.
- 87' 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 Femi Azeez suffering a number of foals already.
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 0-0.
