Events

Match Events

  • 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Oxford United FC to score. At the same time, Southend United FC does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
  • 5' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 10' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 15' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Timothee Dieng made 89 appearances and scored 10 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 17' GOAL! James Henry scores on 17.
  • 22' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 22 minutes.
  • 27' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 32' 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.
  • 37' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 42' 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.
  • 45' What a strike from Lewis Gard! The score is 1-1.
  • 50' Oxford United FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 50.
  • 51' Alex Gorrin is having his name booked by the referee on 51.
  • 54' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Stephen McLaughlin.
  • 57' Daniel Agyei has so much to prove this time. He replaces Alex Gorrin on 57 minute.
  • 62' Oxford United FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 64' Sam Barratt has so much to prove this time. He replaces Stephen McLaughlin on 64 minute.
  • 69' Marcus Browne needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 2 Red cards this season.
  • 70' Another change for Southend United FC made on 70 minute. Lewis Gard leaves to be changed by Isaac Hutchinson.
  • 75' 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 Joe Shaughnessy suffering a number of foals already.
  • 77' The supporters are chanting for Brandon Goodship. He replaces Terrell Egbri on 77 minute.
  • 82' It’s high time Sol Campbell made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.

  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Oxford United FC players.
