  • 10' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Middlesbrough FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 15' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 20' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 24' Sam Greenwood is having his name booked by the referee on 24.
  • 29' Sheffield Wednesday FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 33' Sheffield Wednesday FC player sees a card in front of him.
  • 38' Sheffield Wednesday 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.
  • 40' The referee does not hesitate — a card for James Beadle on 40 minutes.
  • 41' Against the run of play, Michael Ihiekwe has scored! This game has turned on its head.
  • 46' The Sheffield Wednesday FC bench stirs into life. Bailey Cadamarteri is withdrawn and Djeidi Gassama gets his opportunity.
