Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: Shrewsbury Town FC gets underway.
  • 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Walsall FC that had 65 games and scored 67 goals.
  • 10' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 10 minutes.
  • 15' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 20' Walsall 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.
  • 25' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Liam Kinsella made 65 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 30' It looks surprising Shrewsbury Town FC does not make any changes. Tyrese Campbell has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 35' The travelling Walsall FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 40' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 43' The referee calls foul for James Bolton. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 46' The referee calls foul for George Dobson. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 46' The whistle greets Luke Waterfall as he departs to be replaced by Mat Sadler.
  • 51' It’s high time Sam Ricketts made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 56' Luke Leahy has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 3 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
  • 61' Shrewsbury Town FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 65' Joshua Laurent is replacing Fejiri Okenabirhie for the Shrewsbury Town FC side.
  • 70' Walsall FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 70.
  • 75' 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 Scott Golbourne suffering a number of foals already.
  • 78' The Walsall FC manager makes a substitution. Joe Edwards departs to be replaced by Aramide Oteh.
  • 83' Isaiah Osbourne has so much to prove this time. He replaces Liam Kinsella on 83 minute.
  • 87' The whistle greets Anthony Grant as he departs to be replaced by Romain Vincelot.
  • The final score is 0-0.
