  • 37' Kal Naismith has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 37 minutes.
  • 42' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Joe Lolley made 374 appearances and scored 52 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 44' Controversy at the stadium! James Garner argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 49' The energy levels are beginning to show. Nathan Jones might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 50' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Kal Naismith.

  • 90' Elijah Adebayo catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 90.
  • 90' Another change for Luton Town FC made on 90 minute. Elijah Adebayo leaves to be changed by Tom Lockyer.
