Events

Match Events

  • 0' Three points are at stake. Southampton FC host Tottenham Hotspur FC — let the battle begin!
  • 5' Jack Stephens has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 3 cards already picked up this season.
  • 10' Nathan Redmond is a natural right winger and has been asked to do a very specific job for Southampton FC tonight.
  • 15' Southampton FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 17' Danny Ings adds to his 0 season tally! Southampton FC lead 1-0 — and this changes everything.
  • 22' It looks like no one’s ball. Tottenham Hotspur FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 25' Tanguy Ndombele makes way for Giovani Lo Celso at the 25 minute mark. A tactical switch from Tottenham Hotspur FC.
  • 30' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 35' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 36' Giovani Lo Celso was booked on 36.
  • 41' 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 Tanguy Ndombele suffering a number of foals already.
  • 46' 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.
  • 51' Christian Eriksen is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Southampton FC so far.
  • 53' Moussa Djenepo has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 53.
  • 58' The supporters are chanting for Shane Long. He replaces Moussa Djenepo on 58 minute.
  • 61' A meaty challenge results in booking for Moussa Sissoko on 61.
  • 66' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 68' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Jan Bednarek.
  • 70' Tottenham Hotspur FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 72' James Ward-Prowse picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 75' A tactical swap from Tottenham Hotspur FC — Erik Lamela on, Harry Kane off on 75 minutes.
  • 76' Another change for Southampton FC made on 76 minute. Danny Ings leaves to be changed by Michael Obafemi.
  • 81' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 86' Southampton FC have won 417 goals from 348 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 90' Christian Eriksen picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 90' Oriol Romeu has so much to prove this time. He replaces Stuart Armstrong on 90 minute.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 1-0.
