Events
Match Events
- 0' The wait is over. Ipswich Town FC get us underway at Portman Road Stadium.
- 5' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 10' Siriki Dembele has been relatively quiet despite scoring 41 goals in his last 388 appearances.
- 15' A quiet spell here at Portman Road Stadium. Ipswich Town FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 17' Another substitution for Ipswich Town FC to replace Luke Garbutt by Myles Kenlock on 17 minute.
- 22' 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.
- 23' Ivan Toney doubles the advantage! 0-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 28' Cole Skuse has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 33' What a strike from Samuel Szmodics! The score is 0-2.
- 38' 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 Gwion Edwards suffering a number of foals already.
- 43' Christy Pym has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 3 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 46' The crowd applauds Alan Judge as he leaves the pitch. James Norwood steps in for Ipswich Town FC.
- 50' Siriki Dembele does the damage! The net is bulging and Peterborough United FC surge ahead!
- 55' Joe Ward needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 60' It looks like no one’s ball. Ipswich Town FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 61' A tactical swap from Peterborough United FC — Josh Knight on, Reece Brown off on 61 minutes.
- 65' Dan Butler was booked on 65.
- 67' Peterborough United FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 70' Will Keane makes way for Freddie Sears at the 70 minute mark. A tactical switch from Ipswich Town FC.
- 73' The Peterborough United FC manager makes a substitution. Joe Ward departs to be replaced by Niall Mason.
- 74' What a moment for Samuel Szmodics! That strike on 74 puts his side firmly in control.
- 77' The referee calls foul for Gwion Edwards. He receives a Yellow card.
- 79' The deadlock is broken! James Norwood gets on the scoresheet on 79 minutes.
- 83' Peterborough United FC ring the changes. Nathan Thompson has done his job and it is now time for Rhys Bennett to step up.
- 88' Ipswich Town FC is showing some good football. However, Ipswich Town FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 90' Cole Skuse catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 90.
- The referee brings this contest to a close. Peterborough United FC take all three points.
