Events

Match Events

  • 0' The wait is over. Swansea City AFC get us underway at Carrow Road.
  • 5' Norwich City FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 10' Bersant Celina has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 15' Emiliano Buendia, a Argentina , has 21 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 20' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 25' 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.
  • 30' Norwich City FC is showing some good football. However, Norwich City FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 35' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 40' The 33-year-old Mike van der Hoorn has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 45' Cameron Carter-Vickers has been relatively quiet despite scoring 9 goals in his last 388 appearances.
  • 50' It looks surprising Norwich City FC does not make any changes. Courtney Baker-Richardson has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 54' Magnificent from Emiliano Buendia! That is 40 goals in 373 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 59' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 64' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Swansea City AFC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 68' The crowd applauds Nathan Dyer as he leaves the pitch. Barry McKay steps in for Swansea City AFC.
  • 73' It’s high time Graham Potter made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 78' Scotland international Barrie McKay has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 80' The referee calls foul for Emiliano Buendia. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 81' Fresh legs for Swansea City AFC! Declan John comes on to replace George Byers.
  • 84' Mario Vrancic is replacing Marco Stiepermann for the Norwich City FC side.
  • 89' 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 Kristoffer Nordfeldt suffering a number of foals already.
  • 90' A moment of madness from Cameron Carter-Vickers on 90 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Swansea City AFC will be frustrated.
  • 90' Norwich City FC ring the changes. Emiliano Buendia has done his job and it is now time for Moritz Leitner to step up.
  • The final score is 1-0.
