5' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
10' Lincoln City FC are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Blackpool FC's shape.
15' It’s high time Steve Bruce made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
20' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
25' Lincoln City 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.
30' Both keepers have barely been tested. Lincoln City FC and Blackpool FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
32' GOAL! Ashley Fletcher fires home to make it 0-1!
37' With 0 assists to his name this season, Elkan Baggott is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Lincoln City FC.
40' James Collins is ready to make an impact after coming on for Ben House at the 40 minute mark.
45' 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.

67' 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 James Husband suffering a number of foals already.
72' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Lincoln City FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
77' Blackpool FC ring the changes. Robert Apter has done his job and it is now time for Jordan Lawrence-Gabriel to step up.
