Events

Match Events

  • 5' 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.
  • 6' What a moment for Eliot Matazo! That strike on 6 puts his side firmly in control.
  • 11' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 16' Stoke City FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.

  • 40' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 40 minutes.
  • 43' Ali Al-Hamadi doubles the advantage! 1-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 48' 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 Ivor Pandur suffering a number of foals already.
  • 53' Hull City AFC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Stoke City FC backline.

  • 84' The Stoke City FC bench stirs into life. Wouter Burger is withdrawn and Emre Tezgel gets his opportunity.
  • 89' The energy levels are beginning to show. Ruben Selles might look to freshen things up shortly.
