6' A quiet spell here at New York Stadium. Blackburn Rovers FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
11' Rotherham United FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
16' Thomas Kaminski has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
21' Rotherham United FC have won 375 goals from 357 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
26' Blackburn Rovers 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.
31' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
36' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.

69' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
