Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds Saint Mary's will turn into a battlefield for Southampton FC and Fulham FC.
  • 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Bernd Leno made 414 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 10' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Fulham FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 14' Southampton FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Jack Stephens on 14.
  • 19' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 24' Fulham 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.
  • 29' Southampton FC is showing some good football. However, Southampton FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 34' Fulham FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 34.
  • 39' It looks surprising Southampton FC does not make any changes. Ryan Manning has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 44' Supporters expect more eagerness from Sander Berge, as he is very good at scoring at Saint Mary's with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 46' It is a substitution in Fulham FC team. Sander Berge is replaced by Adama Traore on 46 minute.
  • 51' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Southampton FC winning 100% of all matches.
  • 56' 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 Harry Wilson suffering a number of foals already.
  • 61' Fulham FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 66' The whistle greets Ross Stewart as he departs to be replaced by Cameron Archer.
  • 69' Kamal Deen Sulemana was booked on 69.
  • 70' The referee shows Fulham FC player a card on 70.
  • 72' What a strike from Emile Smith Rowe! The score is 1-1.
  • 77' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Southampton FC that had 348 games and scored 417 goals.
  • 78' Tyler Dibling is replacing Kamal Deen Sulemana for the Southampton FC side.
  • 83' It’s high time Simon Rusk made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 86' The supporters are chanting for Tom Cairney. He replaces Alex Iwobi on 86 minute.
  • 87' Another substitution for Fulham FC to replace Harry Wilson by Carlos Vinicius on 87 minute.
