Events
Match Events
- 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Manchester City FC and Fulham FC has kicked off!
- 5' Brilliant from the right winger! Raheem Sterling makes it 1-0 with a superb finish on 5.
- 10' The travelling Fulham FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 15' Manchester City FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Fulham FC backline.
- 20' Aboubakar Kamara has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 3 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 25' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 25 minutes.
- 26' What a moment for Kevin De Bruyne! That strike on 26 puts his side firmly in control.
- 31' Joachim Andersen, a Denmark , has 3 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 36' Fulham FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 41' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 46' The home supporters are growing impatient. Manchester City FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 51' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 56' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Manchester City FC and Fulham FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 61' Manchester City FC are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Fulham FC's shape.
- 66' A quiet spell here at Etihad Stadium. Fulham FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 68' Fulham FC make a change. Harrison Reed trudges off to be replaced by Mario Lemina on 68 minutes.
- 72' It is a substitution in Fulham FC team. Bobby Reid is replaced by Aboubakar Kamara on 72 minute.
- 77' Tosin Adarabioyo has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 82' Manchester City FC have won 1020 goals from 436 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 83' Fulham FC make a change. Ruben Loftus-Cheek trudges off to be replaced by Tom Cairney on 83 minutes.
- 88' 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 Ederson suffering a number of foals already.
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 2-0.
