Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds The Den will turn into a battlefield for Millwall FC and Barnsley FC.
  • 5' Millwall FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 5.
  • 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Barnsley FC that had 385 games and scored 496 goals.
  • 15' It looks surprising Barnsley FC does not make any changes. Jed Wallace has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 20' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 20 minutes.
  • 24' Time for substitution for Barnsley FC. Bradley Collins is replaced by Jack Walton.
  • 26' The referee shows Barnsley FC player a Yellow card on 26.
  • 30' Dan McNamara puts Millwall FC on the lead.
  • 31' Dan McNamara with the second goal in the match!
  • 36' 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 Callum Brittain suffering a number of foals already.
  • 41' It’s high time Gary Rowett made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 46' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Bartosz Bialkowski made 358 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 47' What a strike from Dan McNamara! The score is 3-0.
  • 49' GOAL! Romal Palmer scores on 49.
  • 54' 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.
  • 58' Goal! Oliver Burke scores his 22 goal in 377 matches.
  • 61' The whistle greets Callum Styles as he departs to be replaced by Victor Adeboyejo.
  • 66' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 70' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Benik Afobe.
  • 72' Goal! Benik Afobe scores his 30 goal in 380 matches.
  • 76' The whistle greets Oliver Burke as he departs to be replaced by Tyler Burey.
  • 77' Aaron Leya Iseka has so much to prove this time. He replaces Romal Palmer on 77 minute.
  • 82' It is a substitution in Millwall FC team. Dan McNamara is replaced by Tom Bradshaw on 82 minute.
  • 87' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Barnsley FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • Another three points for Millwall FC.
