Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds Sincil Bank Stadium will turn into a battlefield for Lincoln City FC and Swindon Town FC.
  • 2' Goal! Jordan Garrick scores his 14 goal in 383 matches.
  • 7' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 12' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Conor McGrandles.
  • 17' 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.
  • 19' Matthew Palmer was booked on 19.
  • 24' Supporters expect more eagerness from Jorge Grant, as he is very good at scoring at Sincil Bank Stadium with 6 goals in the last 6 games.
  • 26' GOAL! Jorge Grant scores on 26.
  • 31' It looks surprising Swindon Town FC does not make any changes. Akin Odimayo has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 36' It looks like no one’s ball. Swindon Town FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 41' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Lincoln City FC that had 318 games and scored 382 goals.
  • 45' Brett Pitman puts Swindon Town FC on the lead.
  • 46' Another substitution for Swindon Town FC to replace Dion Conroy by Rob Hunt on 46 minute.
  • 51' 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 Brennan Johnson suffering a number of foals already.
  • 56' The Lincoln City FC manager makes a substitution. Cohen Bramall departs to be replaced by Tayo Edun.
  • 57' The referee shows Swindon Town FC player a Yellow card on 57.
  • 59' GOAL! Morgan Rogers scores on 59. Assisted by Conor McGrandles
  • 64' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 64 minutes.
  • 69' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 74' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Lewis Montsma.
  • 77' Jamie Jones has so much to prove this time. He replaces Conor McGrandles on 77 minute.
  • 82' Another change for Lincoln City FC made on 82 minute. Timothy Eyoma leaves to be changed by Regan Poole.
  • 87' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
