Live comments

  • 0' - The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Reading FC is hosting Birmingham City FC for another epic battle.
  • 5' - Reading FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 5.
  • 7' - GOAL! Andy Carroll scores on 7.
  • 12' - It looks like no one’s ball. Reading FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 17' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Amadou Salif Mbengue made 366 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 22' - 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.
  • 27' - It looks surprising Reading FC does not make any changes. Cesare Casadei has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 29' - GOAL! Lukas Jutkiewicz scores on 29.
  • 34' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Birmingham City FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 39' - 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 Hannibal Mejbri suffering a number of foals already.
  • 44' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 49' - Jobe Bellingham has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 54' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 58' - The referee shows Reading FC player a Yellow card on 58.
  • 63' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 68' - Birmingham City FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 69' - The supporters are chanting for Jobe Bellingham. He replaces Reda Khadra on 69 minute.
  • 70' - Scott Hogan is replacing Lukas Jutkiewicz for the Birmingham City FC side.
  • 72' - It’s a booking for Birmingham City FC player. Krystian Bielik gets a Yellow card.
  • 77' - The travelling Birmingham City FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 82' - The supporters are chanting for Nesta Guinness-Walker. He replaces Yakou Meite on 82 minute.
  • 87' - Birmingham City 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.
  • 90' - Another substitution for Reading FC to replace Amadou Salif Mbengue by Kelvin Abrefa on 90 minute.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 1-1.
