Events

Match Events

  • 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Preston North End FC to score. At the same time, Stoke City FC does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
  • 5' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 10' The travelling Stoke City FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 14' That is a Yellow card for Preston North End FC. Andrew Hughes will be fuming at that decision.
  • 19' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 24' A quiet spell here at Deepdale. Preston North End FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 29' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Alistair McCann made 264 appearances and scored 8 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 34' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 39' Robert Brady has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 14 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 44' Stoke City FC is showing some good football. However, Stoke City FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 49' 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 Alvaro Carreras suffering a number of foals already.
  • 54' Over 54 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 58' Brilliant from the central midfielder! William Smallbone makes it 0-1 with a superb finish on 58.
  • 63' Wales international Morgan Fox has been a key figure this campaign — 2 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 66' Tyrese Campbell adds to his 0 season tally! Stoke City FC lead 0-2 — and this changes everything.
  • 70' A change in the Stoke City FC ranks — Tyrese Campbell exits the field as Liam Delap enters on 70.
  • 71' Preston North End FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Ben Woodburn is hanging Robert Brady on the field on 71 minute.
  • 76' Stoke City FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 78' Stoke City FC ring the changes. William Smallbone has done his job and it is now time for Sam Clucas to step up.
  • 83' The whistle greets Bambo Diaby as he departs to be replaced by Ched Evans.
  • 86' A change in the Stoke City FC ranks — Dwight Gayle exits the field as Harrison Clarke enters on 86.
  • The referee brings this contest to a close. Stoke City FC take all three points.
