Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Oxford United FC kicks off things out of here…
- 4' GOAL! Mohamed Belloumi scores on 4. Assisted by Semi Ajayi
- 9' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 12' Charlie Hughes is having his name booked by the referee on 12.
- 13' What an equalizer from Cameron Brannagan!
- 18' 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 Matt Crooks suffering a number of foals already.
- 23' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 23 minutes.
- 28' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 33' Oxford United FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 38' It’s high time Sergej Jakirović made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 43' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with Hull City AFC winning 50% of all matches.
- 46' Time for substitution for Oxford United FC. Ruben Roosken is replaced by Brodie Spencer.
- 51' 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.
- 56' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Oxford United FC that had 366 games and scored 485 goals.
- 61' It looks surprising Oxford United FC does not make any changes. Cody Drameh has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 64' Another change for Hull City AFC made on 64 minute. Joe Gelhardt leaves to be changed by Lewis Koumas.
- 69' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 74' It looks like no one’s ball. Hull City AFC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 76' Time for substitution for Oxford United FC. Myles Peart-Harris is replaced by Jin-woo Jeon.
- 77' Oxford United FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Will Vaulks is hanging Yunus Konak on the field on 77 minute.
- 82' Hull City AFC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 83' Another substitution for Hull City AFC to replace John Lundstram by Toby Collyer on 83 minute.
- 88' The travelling Hull City AFC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 90' Nik Prelec has so much to prove this time. He replaces William Lankshear on 90 minute.
- The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
