Events

Match Events

  • 0' What a night it is going to be! Shrewsbury Town FC welcome Doncaster Rovers FC for this crunch clash at Montgomery Waters Meadow.
  • 5' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 10' 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 Tom Anderson suffering a number of foals already.
  • 15' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 20' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Darren Moore will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 25' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 25 minutes.
  • 30' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 35' The 27-year-old Callum Lang has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 40' Grenada international Omar Beckles has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 45' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 50' The home supporters are growing impatient. Shrewsbury Town FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 55' Doncaster Rovers FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 60' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 63' A change in the Shrewsbury Town FC ranks — Conor McAleny exits the field as Sean Goss enters on 63.
  • 65' Jon Taylor gets the nod from Doncaster Rovers FC. He replaces James Coppinger and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 70' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Shrewsbury Town FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 73' The Doncaster Rovers FC manager makes a substitution. Niall Ennis departs to be replaced by Kieran Sadlier.
  • 76' What a strike from Dave Edwards! The score is 1-0.
  • 81' The whistle greets Ben Sheaf as he departs to be replaced by Madger Gomes.
  • 82' Brad Walker is replacing Josh Vela for the Shrewsbury Town FC side.
  • 87' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Doncaster Rovers FC that had 235 games and scored 266 goals.
  • 90' Madger Gomes is having his name booked by the referee on 90.
  • Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 1-0 draw is a fair result on the day.
