- 0' In just a few seconds Brisbane Road will turn into a battlefield for Leyton Orient FC and Shrewsbury Town FC.
- 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Shrewsbury Town FC that had 329 games and scored 385 goals.
- 10' Shrewsbury Town FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 10.
- 15' It looks like no one’s ball. Leyton Orient FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Darren Pratley, as he is very good at scoring at Brisbane Road with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 25' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jordan Brown made 385 appearances and scored 5 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 30' Shrewsbury Town FC is showing some good football. However, Shrewsbury 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.
- 35' It’s high time Richie Wellens made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 40' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 45' It looks surprising Leyton Orient FC does not make any changes. Mal Benning has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 50' The travelling Shrewsbury Town FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 55' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 60' Leyton Orient FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 63' Jamie Donley puts Leyton Orient FC on the lead.
- 68' Leo Castledine has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 23 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 73' 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 Sonny Perkins suffering a number of foals already.
- 78' 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.
- 83' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
- 88' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 88 minutes.
