Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds PTS Academy Stadium will turn into a battlefield for Northampton Town FC and Accrington Stanley FC.
  • 2' Goal! Jonathan Russell scores his 21 goal in 231 matches.
  • 4' Accrington Stanley FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 4.
  • 9' It’s high time John Coleman made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 14' It looks surprising Northampton Town FC does not make any changes. Fraser Horsfall has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 19' 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 Cian Bolger suffering a number of foals already.
  • 24' Northampton Town FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 29' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 34' It looks like no one’s ball. Accrington Stanley FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 39' Dion Charles needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 44' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 49' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jonathan Mitchell made 366 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 54' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 59' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 59 minutes.
  • 62' The referee calls foul for Toby Savin. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 67' Northampton Town FC is showing some good football. However, Northampton Town FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 70' Ricky Holmes has so much to prove this time. He replaces Michael Harriman on 70 minute.
  • 71' Time for substitution for Northampton Town FC. Danny Rose is replaced by Bernard Ashley-Seal.
  • 76' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Accrington Stanley FC that had 231 games and scored 314 goals.
  • 81' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 86' Supporters expect more eagerness from Seamus Conneely, as he is very good at scoring at PTS Academy Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Northampton Town FC.
