Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Shrewsbury Town FC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' Shrewsbury Town FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 10' Joshua Daniels has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 15' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 20' 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 Saikou Janneh suffering a number of foals already.
  • 25' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 30' Daniel Udoh, a Nigeria , has 9 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 35' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Shrewsbury Town FC and Wigan Athletic FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 40' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 43' Against the run of play, Max Power has scored! This game has turned on its head.
  • 48' Wigan Athletic FC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 50' What a strike from Will Keane! The score is 0-2.
  • 55' Shrewsbury Town FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Wigan Athletic FC backline.
  • 60' 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.
  • 61' Josh Vela is having his name booked by the referee on 61.
  • 65' The deadlock is broken! Will Keane gets on the scoresheet on 65 minutes.
  • 68' The Wigan Athletic FC manager makes a substitution. James McClean departs to be replaced by Joe Bennett.
  • 73' Wigan Athletic 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.
  • 78' 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.
  • 83' Wigan Athletic FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 86' The Shrewsbury Town FC bench stirs into life. George Nurse is withdrawn and Shaun Whalley gets his opportunity.
  • 88' The Shrewsbury Town FC manager makes a substitution. Daniel Udoh departs to be replaced by Tom Bloxham.
  • 90' A meaty challenge results in booking for Luke Leahy on 90.
  • 90' Saikou Janneh gets the nod from Shrewsbury Town FC. He replaces Ryan Bowman and will look to change the dynamic.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Wigan Athletic FC players.
