Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at The Den. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 10' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Stoke City FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 12' GOAL! Charlie Cresswell fires home to make it 1-0!
  • 17' 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.
  • 22' The travelling Stoke City FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 27' The 31-year-old Jake Cooper has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 1 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 32' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 37' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Stoke City FC that had 385 games and scored 408 goals.
  • 39' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Charlie Cresswell.
  • 43' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Aden Flint.
  • 44' A meaty challenge results in booking for Aden Flint on 44.
  • 49' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 49 minutes.
  • 54' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Josef Bursik made 231 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 58' A tactical swap from Stoke City FC — Jacob Brown on, Dwight Gayle off on 58 minutes.
  • 63' Both keepers have barely been tested. Millwall FC and Stoke City FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 65' What a strike from Charlie Cresswell! The score is 2-0.
  • 66' William Smallbone gets the nod from Stoke City FC. He replaces Sam Clucas and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 71' It looks surprising Stoke City FC does not make any changes. Tyrese Campbell has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 76' The Millwall FC manager makes a substitution. Tom Bradshaw departs to be replaced by Mason Bennett.
  • 79' Stoke City FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Gavin Kilkenny is hanging Ben Wilmot on the field on 79 minute.
  • 83' Gavin Kilkenny has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 83.
  • 88' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Millwall FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • It finishes all square. Millwall FC and Stoke City FC share the spoils 2-0.
