Events
Match Events
- 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at Loftus Road!
- 4' The Queens Park Rangers FC bench stirs into life. Morgan Fox is withdrawn and Jake Clarke-Salter gets his opportunity.
- 6' It’s a booking for Coventry City FC player. Kyle McFadzean gets a Yellow card.
- 11' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 16' Queens Park Rangers FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 21' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 26' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Queens Park Rangers FC that had 378 games and scored 398 goals.
- 31' Ben Wilson is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Coventry City FC tonight.
- 36' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 36 minutes.
- 41' Queens Park Rangers FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 46' It looks surprising Coventry City FC does not make any changes. Joel Latibeaudiere has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 51' Jay Dasilva picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 53' Paul Smyth picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 56' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Ellis Simms makes it 0-1.
- 60' Josh Eccles doubles the advantage! 0-2 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 61' The Queens Park Rangers FC manager makes a substitution. Chris Willock departs to be replaced by Sinclair Armstrong.
- 63' The referee has no hesitation. Sinclair Armstrong is booked for Queens Park Rangers FC — Yellow card on 63.
- 65' Steve Cook has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 65.
- 68' Ellis Simms has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 68 minutes.
- 73' Steve Cook needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 24 Yellow cards this season.
- 75' Coventry City FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 77' That is a Yellow card for Queens Park Rangers FC. Andre Dozzell will be fuming at that decision.
- 79' Another substitution for Coventry City FC to replace Jamie Allen by Yasin Ayari on 79 minute.
- 84' 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 Ilias Chair suffering a number of foals already.
- 89' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 90' What a strike from Kenneth Paal! The score is 1-3.
- With this win, Coventry City FC is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
