- 5' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
- 10' The travelling Wigan Athletic FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 15' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Norwich City FC that had 360 games and scored 363 goals.
- 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Josh Magennis, as he is very good at scoring at Carrow Road with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 25' It looks like no one’s ball. Norwich City FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 29' James McClean puts Wigan Athletic FC on the lead.
- 34' Ben Gibson needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 2 Red cards this season.
- 39' Wigan Athletic FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 44' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 45' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Max Power.
- 50' 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 Todd Cantwell suffering a number of foals already.
- 55' 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.
