24' What a moment for Conor Chaplin! That strike on 24 puts his side firmly in control.
29' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

34' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
