Events

Match Events

  • 0' The wait is over. Sheffield Wednesday FC get us underway at Hillsborough Stadium.
  • 5' Steven Fletcher, a Scotland , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 10' Supporters expect more eagerness from Joe Allen, as he is very good at scoring at Hillsborough Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 15' Cameron Dawson needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 20' It looks surprising Sheffield Wednesday FC does not make any changes. Stephen Ward has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 21' Stoke City FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Mark Duffy is hanging Oghenekaro Etebo on the field on 21 minute.
  • 26' The travelling Stoke City FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 27' Another substitution for Stoke City FC to replace Cameron Carter-Vickers by Liam Lindsay on 27 minute.
  • 32' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 36' The referee shows Sheffield Wednesday FC player a Yellow card on 36.
  • 37' Poor challenge from Massimo Luongo. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
  • 42' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 43' Goal! Massimo Luongo scores his 13 goal in 378 matches.
  • 48' 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 Tyrese Campbell suffering a number of foals already.
  • 53' 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.
  • 54' Sheffield Wednesday FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Kieran Lee is hanging Massimo Luongo on the field on 54 minute.
  • 59' Stoke City FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 64' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 69' Time for substitution for Stoke City FC. Tyrese Campbell is replaced by Scott Hogan.
  • 74' A tactical swap from Sheffield Wednesday FC — Fernando Forestieri on, Kadeem Harris off on 74 minutes.
  • 79' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Stoke City FC that had 380 games and scored 400 goals.
  • 81' Atdhe Nuhiu is ready to make an impact after coming on for Steven Fletcher at the 81 minute mark.
  • 86' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Sheffield Wednesday FC and Stoke City FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 87' Poor challenge from Joe Allen. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
  • 90' The referee shows Sheffield Wednesday FC player a Yellow card on 90.
  • Game over. The scoreline of 1-0 tells the full story of an entertaining encounter.
