- 0' The game is set. Portsmouth FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' It looks like no one’s ball. Scunthorpe United FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Craig MacGillivray made 371 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 15' Scunthorpe United 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.
- 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Jamal Lowe, as he is very good at scoring at Fratton Park with 4 goals in the last 4 games.
- 25' Clayton Lewis needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 30' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 35' It’s high time Stuart McCall made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 40' The travelling Scunthorpe United FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 45' Another substitution for Portsmouth FC to replace Viv Solomon-Otabor by Gareth Evans on 45 minute.
- 50' 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 Rory McArdle suffering a number of foals already.
- 55' 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.

- 78' Clayton Lewis has so much to prove this time. He replaces George Thomas on 78 minute.
- 83' 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.
