Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: Middlesbrough FC gets underway.
  • 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' Middlesbrough 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.
  • 15' Supporters expect more eagerness from Joe Ward, as he is very good at scoring at Weston Homes Stadium with 10 goals in the last 9 games.
  • 20' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 25' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Peterborough United FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 26' Middlesbrough FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Marcus Tavernier on 26.
  • 28' Peterborough United FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 28.
  • 33' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 35' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Josh Knight.
  • 40' Middlesbrough FC is showing some good football. However, Middlesbrough FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 45' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 45 minutes.
  • 46' The Peterborough United FC manager makes a substitution. Jonson Clarke-Harris departs to be replaced by Ricky Jade-Jones.
  • 49' What a strike from Folarin Balogun! The score is 0-2.
  • 54' Middlesbrough FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 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 Matty Crooks suffering a number of foals already.
  • 61' Another change for Peterborough United FC made on 61 minute. Emmanuel Fernandez leaves to be changed by Kwame Poku.
  • 62' It is a substitution in Peterborough United FC team. Jack Taylor is replaced by Jorge Grant on 62 minute.
  • 67' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 72' Samuel Szmodics needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 74' Marcus Tavernier is having his name booked by the referee on 74.
  • 79' It looks surprising Peterborough United FC does not make any changes. Paddy McNair has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 82' Goal! Josh Coburn scores his 30 goal in 383 matches.
  • 87' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jack Taylor made 20 appearances and scored 24 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 90' Goal! Duncan Watmore scores his 37 goal in 363 matches.
  • 90' The referee shows Peterborough United FC player a Yellow card on 90.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Middlesbrough FC players.
