Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Peterborough United FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' The referee calls foul for James Olayinka. He receives a card.
- 10' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 15' 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.
- 20' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 25' Supporters expect more eagerness from Hector Matthew Kyprianou, as he is very good at scoring at Weston Homes Stadium with 9 goals in the last 9 games.
- 30' Peter Kioso has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 47 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 35' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 35 minutes.
- 40' 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.
- 45' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 50' It looks surprising Peterborough United FC does not make any changes. Kwame Poku has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 54' GOAL! Harrison Burrows scores on 54.
- 59' 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 Josh Knight suffering a number of foals already.
- 61' Goal! Jonson Clarke-Harris scores his 123 goal in 374 matches.
- 62' Cheltenham Town FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Oliver Hammond is hanging Luciano D'Auria-Henry on the field on 62 minute.

- 70' Zak Sturge is replacing Joel Randall for the Peterborough United FC side.
- 75' Cheltenham Town FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 76' Another substitution for Cheltenham Town FC to replace Aidan Keena by Nathan Butler-Oyedeji on 76 minute.
- 78' Time for substitution for Peterborough United FC. Kwame Poku is replaced by Jacob Wakeling.
- 83' Cheltenham Town FC is showing some good football. However, Cheltenham Town FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 87' The referee shows Cheltenham Town FC player a card on 87.
- 87' Peterborough United FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Ricky Jade-Jones is hanging Harrison Burrows on the field on 87 minute.
