Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: Aston Villa FC gets underway.
  • 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Aston Villa FC that had 355 games and scored 497 goals.
  • 10' Sheffield United FC is showing some good football. However, Sheffield 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.
  • 12' Aston Villa FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by John McGinn on 12.
  • 16' GOAL! Ollie Watkins scores on 16.
  • 20' What a strike from Leon Bailey! The score is 0-3.
  • 25' Supporters expect more eagerness from William Osula, as he is very good at scoring at Bramall Lane with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
  • 30' Goal! Youri Tielemans scores his 42 goal in 422 matches.
  • 35' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Rhys Norrington-Davies made 10 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 40' It looks like no one’s ball. Aston Villa FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 44' Jayden Bogle was booked on 44.
  • 46' The supporters are chanting for Jacob Ramsey. He replaces Douglas Luiz on 46 minute.
  • 47' GOAL! Alex Moreno scores on 47. Assisted by Ollie Watkins
  • 50' The whistle greets Rhys Norrington-Davies as he departs to be replaced by Jack Robinson.
  • 55' 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 Douglas Luiz suffering a number of foals already.
  • 59' The supporters are chanting for Moussa Diaby. He replaces Ezri Konsa on 59 minute.
  • 60' Matty Cash has so much to prove this time. He replaces Leon Bailey on 60 minute.
  • 65' Cameron Archer is replacing Ben Brereton for the Sheffield United FC side.
  • 70' Sheffield United FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 71' Another substitution for Aston Villa FC to replace John McGinn by Tim Iroegbunam on 71 minute.
  • 72' The whistle greets James McAtee as he departs to be replaced by Tom Davies.
  • 77' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 81' Another substitution for Aston Villa FC to replace Youri Tielemans by Morgan Rogers on 81 minute.
  • 86' The travelling Aston Villa FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • The final score is 0-5.
