Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Fratton Park. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 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 Sean O'Brien suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' It’s high time Duncan Ferguson made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 15' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 15 minutes.
- 20' Forest Green Rovers FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 20.
- 25' It looks like no one’s ball. Forest Green Rovers FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 30' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Forest Green Rovers FC that had 58 games and scored 46 goals.
- 35' Supporters expect more eagerness from Sean Raggett, as he is very good at scoring at Fratton Park with 12 goals in the last 11 games.
- 37' Portsmouth FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 38' Tom Lowery is having his name booked by the referee on 38.
- 43' It looks surprising Forest Green Rovers FC does not make any changes. Myles Peart-Harris has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 44' Portsmouth FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 44.
- 49' Portsmouth 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.
- 52' Goal! Owen Dale scores his 22 goal in 96 matches.
- 57' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Forest Green Rovers FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 62' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ryan Tunnicliffe made 382 appearances and scored 11 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 67' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 71' The Portsmouth FC manager makes a substitution. Ryan Tunnicliffe departs to be replaced by Marlon Pack.
- 72' Another substitution for Forest Green Rovers FC to replace Dylan McGeouch by Tyrese Omotoye on 72 minute.
- 74' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Udoka Malife.
- 79' Kyle McAllister has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 47 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 81' Another change for Portsmouth FC made on 81 minute. Clark Robertson leaves to be changed by Ryley Towler.
- 85' The referee calls foul for Ryley Towler. He receives a Yellow card.
- 86' Forest Green Rovers FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Sean O'Brien is hanging Jordan Garrick on the field on 86 minute.
- Another three points for Portsmouth FC.
