Events

Match Events

0' We are underway at St James' Park. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
5' 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 Crysencio Summerville suffering a number of foals already.
10' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
15' Newcastle United FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Nick Woltemade on 15.
19' William Osula is having a superb {COMPETITION} campaign — that is 0 goals this season for the .
24' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Newcastle United FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
29' It looks like no one’s ball. West Ham United FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
34' Supporters expect more eagerness from Jarrod Bowen, as he is very good at scoring at St James' Park with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
39' It is a cagey affair so far. Newcastle United FC in their 4-2-3-1 trying to find a way past West Ham United FC's compact 3-4-2-1.
44' Newcastle United FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 44.
49' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Sven Botman made 369 appearances and scored 10 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
54' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering West Ham United FC that had 341 games and scored 462 goals.
59' Tomas Soucek picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
64' Newcastle United FC currently sit 13 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.

80' It’s a booking for West Ham United FC player. Mohamadou Kante gets a card.
83' That is a card for Newcastle United FC. Lewis Hall will be fuming at that decision.
