Events

Match Events

  • 0' What a night it is going to be! St. Johnstone FC welcome St. Mirren FC for this crunch clash at McDiarmid Park.
  • 5' Scott Tanser is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for St. Johnstone FC tonight.
  • 10' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Killian Phillips makes it 0-1.
  • 15' St. Johnstone FC currently sit 9 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 20' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Bozo Mikulic made 8 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 25' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 25 minutes.
  • 30' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 35' St. Mirren 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.
  • 40' St. Mirren FC come into this ranked 7 in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 45' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both St. Johnstone FC and St. Mirren FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 46' It is a substitution in St. Johnstone FC team. Bozo Mikulic is replaced by David Keltjens on 46 minute.
  • 51' It looks like no one’s ball. St. Johnstone FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 52' GOAL! Nicky Clark fires home to make it 1-1!
  • 57' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 60' It’s a booking for St. Mirren FC player. Greg Kiltie gets a card.
  • 65' 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 Alex Iacovitti suffering a number of foals already.
  • 69' The supporters are chanting for Roland Idowu. He replaces Mikael Mandron on 69 minute.
  • 74' Supporters expect more eagerness from Evan Mooney, as he is very good at scoring at McDiarmid Park with 1 goals in the last 1 games.

  • 80' A tactical swap from St. Mirren FC — Evan Mooney on, Greg Kiltie off on 80 minutes.
  • 81' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Benjamin Mbunga-Kimpioka makes it 2-1.
  • 86' 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.
  • 88' The deadlock is broken! Evan Mooney gets on the scoresheet on 88 minutes.
  • 90' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Jack Sanders on 90 minutes.
  • What a match! Full time at {STADIUM} — St. Johnstone FC 2-3 St. Mirren FC.
