Match Events
- 0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Shrewsbury Town FC is hosting Oxford United FC for another epic battle.
- 5' Jack Hinchy has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 40 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 10' 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.
- 15' 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.
- 20' Shrewsbury Town FC is showing some good football. However, Shrewsbury Town FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 25' Supporters expect more eagerness from Marko Marosi, as he is very good at scoring at Montgomery Waters Meadow with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 30' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 35' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 40' Oxford United 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.
- 45' Oxford United FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 50' It looks surprising Oxford United FC does not make any changes. Carl Winchester has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.

- 58' 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 Joe Bennett suffering a number of foals already.
- 63' Cheyenne Dunkley needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 7 Yellow cards this season.
- 68' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
