  • 0' KICK OFF: Rochdale AFC gets underway.
  • 5' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

  • 61' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 65' The crowd applauds Jack Hunter as he leaves the pitch. Luke Molyneux steps in for Gateshead FC.

  • 80' Brendan Moore, a United States , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
