- 0' Welcome to New York Stadium that hosts another battle between Rotherham United FC and Sheffield United FC.
- 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Hakeem Odoffin made 191 appearances and scored 17 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 10' Supporters expect more eagerness from Anel Ahmedhodzic, as he is very good at scoring at New York Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 15' It looks surprising Rotherham United FC does not make any changes. Conor Coventry has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 20' 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.
- 25' Leo Fuhr Hjelde needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 30' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 35' It looks like no one’s ball. Rotherham United FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 40' Sheffield United FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 40.
- 45' 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 James McAtee suffering a number of foals already.
- 50' 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.
- 55' Rotherham United FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 56' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Anel Ahmedhodzic.
- 61' Rotherham United FC is showing some good football. However, Rotherham United FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.

- 69' The supporters are chanting for Bailey Wright. He replaces Grant Hall on 69 minute.
- 73' Another substitution for Rotherham United FC to replace Bailey Wright by Wes Harding on 73 minute.
- 78' The referee shows Rotherham United FC player a Yellow card on 78.
- 82' Rotherham United FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Shane Ferguson is hanging Tariqe Fosu on the field on 82 minute.
