Events
Match Events
- 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Leeds United FC and Burnley FC has kicked off!
- 5' 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 Dwight McNeil suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' Poor challenge from Tyler Roberts. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 15' It’s high time Marcelo Bielsa made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 20' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 20 minutes.
- 25' Tyler Roberts has been relatively quiet despite scoring 17 goals in his last 360 appearances.
- 28' James Tarkowski has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 28.
- 33' The 26-year-old Illan Meslier has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 38' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Johann Berg Gudmundsson made 346 appearances and scored 15 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 39' Magnificent from Jack Harrison! That is 43 goals in 360 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 44' Junior Firpo has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 3 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 46' The supporters are chanting for Maxwel Cornet. He replaces Johann Berg Gudmundsson on 46 minute.
- 51' It looks surprising Leeds United FC does not make any changes. Aaron Lennon has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 53' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Diego Llorente.
- 54' GOAL! Maxwel Cornet scores on 54.
- 58' The supporters are chanting for Joe Gelhardt. He replaces Tyler Roberts on 58 minute.
- 62' A change in the Leeds United FC ranks — Jack Harrison exits the field as Daniel James enters on 62.
- 67' A quiet spell here at Elland Road. Burnley FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 72' The travelling Burnley FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 77' The deadlock is broken! Stuart Dallas gets on the scoresheet on 77 minutes.
- 80' The Burnley FC bench stirs into life. Aaron Lennon is withdrawn and Jay Rodriguez gets his opportunity.
- 84' Fresh legs for Burnley FC! Matej Vydra comes on to replace Chris Wood.
- 89' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- Leeds United FC celebrates a vital win. Three points that could prove pivotal come season's end.
