Events

Match Events

10' Supporters expect more eagerness from Filip Kurto, as he is very good at scoring at Campbelltown Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
15' It looks like no one’s ball. Western United FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.

23' Western United FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Noah Botic on 23.
23' Luke Brattan is having his name booked by the referee on 23.

54' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Matthew Jurman made 149 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
55' The supporters are chanting for Daniel De Silva. He replaces Harry Sawyer on 55 minute.
60' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

61' Western United FC player sees a card in front of him.
61' Time for substitution for Macarthur FC. Chris Ikonomidis is replaced by Walter Scott.
66' Macarthur 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.
