- 20' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 25' A moment of madness from George Byers on 25 minutes earns him a card. Blackpool FC will be frustrated.
- 30' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Shrewsbury Town FC that had 329 games and scored 385 goals.
- 35' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 40' The travelling Blackpool FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 43' Magnificent from Karamoko Dembele! That is 14 goals in 410 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 45' Poor challenge from Daniel Udoh. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
- 50' Harry Burgoyne needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
