17' The travelling Bristol Rovers FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
20' It is a substitution in Peterborough United FC team. Christopher Conn-Clarke is replaced by Malik Mothersille on 20 minute.
25' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 25 minutes.
30' 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.
33' What a strike from Ricky Jade-Jones! The score is 2-0.
36' That looks like a foul for a card for Archie Collins.
41' 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.
46' Lino Sousa has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 19 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
