Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Luton Town FC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Luton Town FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 10' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 10 minutes.
  • 15' AFC Bournemouth is showing some good football. However, AFC Bournemouth are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 20' AFC Bournemouth started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 20.
  • 25' A quiet spell here at Kenilworth Road. AFC Bournemouth seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 30' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 35' Antoine Semenyo has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 2 appearances with only 2 goals this season.
  • 40' Luton Town FC have won 465 goals from 382 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 45' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 50' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 52' Magnificent from Marcus Tavernier! That is 29 goals in 383 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 57' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 59' Time for substitution for AFC Bournemouth. Marcus Tavernier is replaced by Dango Ouattara.
  • 62' Luke Berry gets the nod from Luton Town FC. He replaces Daiki Hashioka and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 67' Over 67 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 69' Enes Unal gets the nod from AFC Bournemouth. He replaces Antoine Semenyo and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 73' Magnificent from Jordan Clark! That is 34 goals in 231 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 78' 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.
  • 80' Luton Town FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Cauley Woodrow is hanging Tahith Chong on the field on 80 minute.
  • 85' Tahith Chong has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 87' Time for substitution for AFC Bournemouth. Lewis Cook is replaced by Alex Scott.
  • 88' The whistle greets Milos Kerkez as he departs to be replaced by Marcos Senesi.
  • 90' Carlton Morris adds to his 0 season tally! Luton Town FC lead 2-1 — and this changes everything.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Luton Town FC players.
