0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Peterborough United FC is hosting Shrewsbury Town FC for another epic battle.
5' 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 Idris Kanu suffering a number of foals already.
10' The home supporters are growing impatient. Peterborough United FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
15' Shrewsbury Town FC have won 385 goals from 329 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
16' Magnificent from Jonson Clarke-Harris! That is 123 goals in 376 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
16' Harry Burgoyne is having his name booked by the referee on 16.
18' The deadlock is broken! Joshua Daniels gets on the scoresheet on 18 minutes.
23' Both keepers have barely been tested. Peterborough United FC and Shrewsbury Town FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.

38' Marc Pugh is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Shrewsbury Town FC so far.

53' The crowd applauds Reece Brown as he leaves the pitch. Louis Reed steps in for Peterborough United FC.
58' Oliver Norburn was booked on 58.
63' Shrewsbury Town FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
68' Shilow Tracey has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 4 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
69' What composure from Siriki Dembele! The Scotland international strokes it home. 3-1.
74' Mohamed Eisa gets the nod from Peterborough United FC. He replaces Jonson Clarke-Harris and will look to change the dynamic.

80' A stunning finish from Siriki Dembele — that came from absolutely nowhere!
81' Shilow Tracey has so much to prove this time. He replaces Daniel Udoh on 81 minute.
