Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at City Ground, Nottingham. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' Matz Sels has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 5 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 10' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 15' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 15 minutes.
- 20' Newcastle United FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 25' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 30' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with Newcastle United FC winning 50% of all matches.
- 35' 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 William Osula suffering a number of foals already.
- 40' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Newcastle United FC that had 339 games and scored 448 goals.
- 45' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Sandro Tonali made 114 appearances and scored 17 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 49' Igor Jesus was booked on 49.
- 54' That looks like a foul for a card for Ryan Yates.
- 59' Supporters expect more eagerness from Taiwo Awoniyi, as he is very good at scoring at City Ground, Nottingham with 7 goals in the last 5 games.
- 64' Newcastle United FC looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Harvey Barnes scoring 1 goals.
- 69' Nottingham Forest FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 69.
- 74' Goal! Harvey Barnes scores his 74 goal in 377 matches.
- 79' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 84' 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.
- 88' GOAL! Elliot Anderson scores on 88. Assisted by James McAtee
- The final score is 1-1.
