0' That's the starting whistle at LNER Stadium. Ninety minutes of football awaits between Lincoln City FC and Portsmouth FC.
5' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Joe Morrell.
10' Saint Lucia international Recco Hackett-Fairchild has been a key figure this campaign — 1 goals and 1 assists in the Array this season.
15' Portsmouth FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
20' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 20 minutes.
21' The Lincoln City FC manager makes a substitution. Adam Jackson departs to be replaced by Daniel Mandroiu.
26' 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.

43' Adam Jackson has been relatively quiet despite scoring 12 goals in his last 390 appearances.
45' The referee has no hesitation. Daniel Mandroiu is booked for Lincoln City FC — Yellow card on 45.
50' 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 Di'Shon Bernard suffering a number of foals already.
55' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
56' Recco Hackett-Fairchild was booked on 56.
59' Portsmouth FC make a change. Owen Dale trudges off to be replaced by Joe Pigott on 59 minutes.

82' A tactical swap from Portsmouth FC — Di'Shon Bernard on, Joe Rafferty off on 82 minutes.
87' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Portsmouth FC that had 376 games and scored 532 goals.

Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 0-0.
