0' The game is set. Southampton FC kicks off things out of here…
5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Eberechi Eze made 386 appearances and scored 63 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
10' The 28-year-old Ismaila Sarr has been sensational this season — 4 goals and 1 assists is a remarkable return.
15' Crystal Palace FC receives a card for a hard tackle on 15.
20' Southampton FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Paul Onuachu on 20.
25' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
30' Jan Bednarek, a Poland , has 48 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
35' 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 Eddie Nketiah suffering a number of foals already.
40' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
45' Southampton 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.
50' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
55' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
58' Crystal Palace FC make a change. Tyrick Mitchell trudges off to be replaced by Ben Chilwell on 58 minutes.
59' Another change for Crystal Palace FC made on 59 minute. Jean-Philippe Mateta leaves to be changed by Eddie Nketiah.
64' That looks like a foul for a card for Flynn Downes.
69' Taylor Harwood-Bellis needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
71' The whistle greets Chimuanya Ugochukwu as he departs to be replaced by Joe Aribo.
76' Crystal Palace FC ring the changes. Daniel Munoz has done his job and it is now time for Matheus Franca to step up.
81' Fresh legs for Southampton FC! Welington comes on to replace Ryan Manning.
86' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
87' Jan Bednarek has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 87.
90' Another substitution for Southampton FC to replace Flynn Downes by Cameron Archer on 90 minute.
What a match! Full time at {STADIUM} — Southampton FC 1-1 Crystal Palace FC.
