  • 5' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 10' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Oxford United FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 15' Scunthorpe 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.
  • 20' It looks like no one’s ball. Scunthorpe United FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 25' Scunthorpe United FC is showing some good football. However, Scunthorpe United FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 30' John Mousinho has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 48 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 35' Oxford United FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 40' It’s high time Karl Robinson made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 45' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Harrison McGahey made 140 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

  • 64' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
