Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Fratton Park. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' It looks surprising Portsmouth FC does not make any changes. Conor Shaughnessy has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 9' Keshi Anderson puts Portsmouth FC on the lead.
  • 14' It looks like no one’s ball. Portsmouth FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 17' It’s gonna be a card for Connor Ogilvie.
  • 21' Jordan Williams is replacing Conor Chaplin for the Portsmouth FC side.
  • 26' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Portsmouth FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 31' Will Vaulks needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 36' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 41' 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 Przemyslaw Placheta suffering a number of foals already.
  • 46' Another substitution for Oxford United FC to replace Yunus Konak by Will Vaulks on 46 minute.
  • 48' What an equalizer from Brodie Spencer!

  • 61' It’s a booking for Oxford United FC player. Will Vaulks gets a card.
  • 62' A meaty challenge results in booking for Andre Dozzell on 62.

  • 66' The whistle greets Brodie Spencer as he departs to be replaced by Przemyslaw Placheta.
  • 71' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with Portsmouth FC winning 50% of all matches.
