Events

Match Events

  • 0' Temperatures are rising at The Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium as Queens Park Rangers FC face off against Cardiff City FC in what promises to be a fascinating contest.
  • 1' The referee calls foul for Perry Ng. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 3' That is a Yellow card for Cardiff City FC. Perry Ng will be fuming at that decision.
  • 8' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 13' With 0 assists to his name this season, Ryan Allsop is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Queens Park Rangers FC.

  • 28' Curtis Nelson has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 28.
  • 33' Magnificent from Lyndon Dykes! That is 51 goals in 251 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 38' It looks surprising Queens Park Rangers FC does not make any changes. Jake Clarke-Salter has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 43' 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 Cedric Kipre suffering a number of foals already.
  • 46' Thomas Sang is ready to make an impact after coming on for Perry Ng at the 46 minute mark.

  • 74' GOAL! Kenneth Paal fires home to make it 3-0!
  • 75' The supporters are chanting for Macauley Bonne. He replaces Lyndon Dykes on 75 minute.
