Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at New York Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' Cameron Humphreys has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 20 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 10' It looks like no one’s ball. Norwich City FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 15' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Rotherham United FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 20' 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 Ashley Barnes suffering a number of foals already.
  • 22' Goal! Dexter Lembikisa scores his 3 goal in 343 matches.
  • 27' Jonathan Rowe needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 32' Norwich City FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 36' It’s a booking for Rotherham United FC player. Jordan Hugill gets a Yellow card.
  • 40' What a strike from Jordan Hugill! The score is 2-0.
  • 43' Norwich City FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 45' It’s a booking for Rotherham United FC player. Oliver Rathbone gets a Yellow card.
  • 50' Goal! Christian Fassnacht scores his 15 goal in 236 matches.
  • 55' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 60' Rotherham United 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.
  • 63' It is a substitution in Rotherham United FC team. Andre Green is replaced by Sam Nombe on 63 minute.
  • 64' The supporters are chanting for Przemyslaw Placheta. He replaces Jonathan Rowe on 64 minute.
  • 69' It’s high time Matt Taylor made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 74' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Rotherham United FC that had 357 games and scored 375 goals.
  • 77' Tony Springett has so much to prove this time. He replaces Adam Idah on 77 minute.
  • 82' Supporters expect more eagerness from Dimitris Giannoulis, as he is very good at scoring at New York Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 83' Another substitution for Rotherham United FC to replace Jordan Hugill by Tom Eaves on 83 minute.
  • 84' Tom Eaves has so much to prove this time. He replaces Jordan Hugill on 84 minute.
  • 89' 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.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 2-1.
