- 0' Three points are at stake. Leeds United FC host Watford FC — let the battle begin!
- 5' It looks like no one’s ball. Watford FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 10' Watford FC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 15' Over 15 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 18' Magnificent from Diego Llorente! That is 10 goals in 121 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 23' Ken Sema has been relatively quiet despite scoring 14 goals in his last 358 appearances.
- 28' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 33' Watford FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 38' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Xisco Munoz will be considering his options from the bench.
- 43' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Leeds United FC that had 358 games and scored 532 goals.
- 45' Fresh legs for Watford FC! Ken Sema comes on to replace Joshua King.
- 50' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.

- 68' The Watford FC bench stirs into life. Francisco Sierralta is withdrawn and Christian Kabasele gets his opportunity.
- 73' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Junior Firpo made 349 appearances and scored 12 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 78' The Leeds United FC manager makes a substitution. Stuart Dallas departs to be replaced by Tyler Roberts.
- 83' England international Kalvin Phillips has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
