Events

Match Events

  • 0' Temperatures are rising at The Kassam Stadium as Oxford United FC face off against Rotherham United FC in what promises to be a fascinating contest.
  • 5' 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 Matty Crooks suffering a number of foals already.
  • 8' That is a Yellow card for Oxford United FC. Alex Gorrin will be fuming at that decision.
  • 13' The energy levels are beginning to show. Paul Warne might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 16' GOAL! Kyle Vassell fires home to make it 0-1!
  • 21' The travelling Rotherham United FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 26' The 31-year-old Jamie Lindsay has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 31' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 33' A goal from the Northern Ireland international Kyle Vassell! He fires home on 33 to make it 0-2!
  • 38' Tariqe Fosu has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 13 cards already picked up this season.
  • 43' Oxford United FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 46' The Oxford United FC manager makes a substitution. Alex Gorrin departs to be replaced by Nathan Holland.
  • 51' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Richard Wood makes it 0-3.
  • 52' Rotherham United FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 52.
  • 57' Both keepers have barely been tested. Oxford United FC and Rotherham United FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 61' Time for substitution for Oxford United FC. Jamie Mackie is replaced by Matt Taylor.
  • 66' Supporters expect more eagerness from Freddie Ladapo, as he is very good at scoring at The Kassam Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.

  • 83' That is a Yellow card for Oxford United FC. Sam Long will be fuming at that decision.
  • 88' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Oxford United FC that had 380 games and scored 507 goals.
  • 90' Another change for Rotherham United FC made on 90 minute. Daniel Barlaser leaves to be changed by Trevor Clarke.
  • It finishes all square. Oxford United FC and Rotherham United FC share the spoils 1-3.
