Events
Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds St James' Park will turn into a battlefield for Newcastle United FC and Liverpool FC.
- 5' It looks surprising Liverpool FC does not make any changes. Bruno Guimaraes has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 10' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 15' 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 Emil Krafth suffering a number of foals already.
- 19' A goal from the Guinea international Naby Keita! He fires home on 19 to make it 0-1!
- 20' What composure from Naby Keita! The Guinea international strokes it home. 0-2.
- 25' The 34-year-old Mohamed Salah has been sensational this season — 1 goals and 2 assists is a remarkable return.
- 30' 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.
- 35' James Milner has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 40' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 43' Joelinton catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 43.
- 48' Newcastle United 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.
- 51' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Joe Gomez.
- 56' Jordan Henderson has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 7 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 61' Fresh legs for Newcastle United FC! Jamaal Lascelles comes on to replace Fabian Schar.
- 66' Liverpool FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 67' Chris Wood gets the nod from Newcastle United FC. He replaces Joe Willock and will look to change the dynamic.
- 68' Liverpool FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 69' The whistle greets Sadio Mane as he departs to be replaced by Mohamed Salah.
- 74' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 78' The supporters are chanting for Thiago Alcantara. He replaces James Milner on 78 minute.
- 83' Both keepers have barely been tested. Newcastle United FC and Liverpool FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 85' The Newcastle United FC bench stirs into life. Emil Krafth is withdrawn and Jacob Murphy gets his opportunity.
- 90' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Liverpool FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- That’s it! Another goalless match for Newcastle United FC and Liverpool FC (для сухой ничьи).
