Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: Southport FC gets underway.
  • 5' Tranmere Rovers FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 5.
  • 10' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 14' What a strike from Conner Jennings! The score is 0-1.
  • 19' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Jay Harris.
  • 24' 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 Ryan Astles suffering a number of foals already.
  • 29' 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.
  • 34' It’s high time Liam Watson made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 39' Supporters expect more eagerness from Harvey Gilmour, as he is very good at scoring at Haig Avenue with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 43' What a strike from Conner Jennings! The score is 0-2.
  • 48' The travelling Tranmere Rovers FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 53' Paul Mullin needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 58' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 58 minutes.
  • 63' The supporters are chanting for Devarn Green. He replaces Marcus Wood on 63 minute.
  • 68' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Southport FC that had 12 games and scored 3 goals.
  • 73' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 78' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 80' Time for substitution for Southport FC. Jordan Richards is replaced by Jordan Archer.
  • 81' It is a substitution in Tranmere Rovers FC team. Paul Mullin is replaced by Cole Stockton on 81 minute.
  • 86' Adam Buxton has so much to prove this time. He replaces Jake Caprice on 86 minute.
