- 0' We are underway at New York Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' Sebastian Revan needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 7 Yellow cards this season.
- 10' Stoke 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.
- 15' It’s high time Leam Richardson made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 20' Rotherham United FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 25' 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 Oliver Rathbone suffering a number of foals already.
- 30' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 35' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ryan Mmaee made 372 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
