Events

Match Events

0' Three points are at stake. Newcastle United Jets FC host Macarthur FC — let the battle begin!
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 Lachlan Rose suffering a number of foals already.
10' Macarthur FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
15' 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.
20' Jed Drew has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
25' Macarthur FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
30' Macarthur 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.
