- 5' Sam McCallum has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 1 cards already picked up this season.

- 15' Jacob Brown has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 1 goals to his name this season.
- 19' Kieran Dowell is having his name booked by the referee on 19.
- 24' 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 Onel Hernandez suffering a number of foals already.

- 32' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Dwight Gayle.
