  • 0' KICK OFF: Sunderland AFC gets underway.
  • 5' 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.
  • 10' Goal! Nathan Broadhead scores his 40 goal in 372 matches.
  • 11' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Adam Phillips.
  • 16' The travelling Sunderland AFC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 21' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 26' The Sunderland AFC manager makes a substitution. Nathan Broadhead departs to be replaced by Jack Clarke.
  • 31' Anthony Patterson has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 3 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 36' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 41' Morecambe 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.
  • 46' It’s high time Derek Adams made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 51' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Morecambe FC that had 98 games and scored 108 goals.
  • 56' 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 Danny Batth suffering a number of foals already.
  • 61' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.

  • The final score is 0-1.
