Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Blackpool FC gets underway.
- 5' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 7' The referee calls foul for Jake Cooper. He receives a Yellow card.
- 12' It looks like no one’s ball. Blackpool FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 14' Millwall FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Zian Flemming on 14.
- 19' 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 Charlie Cresswell suffering a number of foals already.
- 24' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
- 29' Millwall FC is showing some good football. However, Millwall FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 33' Goal! Charlie Patino scores his 8 goal in 414 matches.
- 38' Jerry Yates has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 2 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 43' It looks surprising Blackpool FC does not make any changes. George Long has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 48' Millwall FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 48.
- 53' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 58' Scott Malone needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 2 Red cards this season.
- 60' Charlie Patino is having his name booked by the referee on 60.
- 63' GOAL! Benik Afobe scores on 63.
- 68' It’s a booking for Millwall FC player. Murray Wallace gets a Yellow card.
- 72' Another substitution for Blackpool FC to replace Callum Connolly by Jordan Gabriel on 72 minute.
- 77' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 78' Time for substitution for Millwall FC. George Honeyman is replaced by Dan McNamara.
- 81' CJ Hamilton has so much to prove this time. He replaces James Husband on 81 minute.
- 86' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Blackpool FC that had 384 games and scored 466 goals.
- The final score is 2-1.
