Events

Match Events

  • 0' Three points are at stake. St. Mirren FC host St. Johnstone FC — let the battle begin!
  • 5' Chris Kane has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 10' Scotland international Jason Kerr has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 15' 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 Calum Waters suffering a number of foals already.
  • 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Jonathan Obika, as he is very good at scoring at The Simple Digital Arena with 8 goals in the last 7 games.
  • 25' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 30' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both St. Mirren FC and St. Johnstone FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 35' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 40' With 0 assists to his name this season, Danny Swanson is clearly more than just a goal scorer for St. Mirren FC.
  • 45' Vaclav Hladky, a Czech Republic goalkeeper, has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 50' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His St. Mirren FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 55' A meaty challenge results in booking for Liam Craig on 55.
  • 60' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 65' St. Johnstone FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Michael O'Halloran is hanging David Wotherspoon on the field on 65 minute.
  • 67' The whistle greets Alex Jakubiak as he departs to be replaced by Tony Andreu.
  • 68' The referee has no hesitation. Sam Foley is booked for St. Mirren FC — Yellow card on 68.
  • 72' It’s a booking for St. Johnstone FC player. Jason Kerr gets a Yellow card.
  • 75' The supporters are chanting for Danny Swanson. He replaces Stevie May on 75 minute.
  • 77' St. Mirren FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 79' St. Johnstone FC receives a Red card for a hard tackle on 79.
  • 83' Chris Kane makes way for Matt Butcher at the 83 minute mark. A tactical switch from St. Johnstone FC.
  • 84' Seifedin Chabbi gets the nod from St. Mirren FC. He replaces Ross Wallace and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 89' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering St. Mirren FC that had 290 games and scored 283 goals.
  • What a match! Full time at {STADIUM} — St. Mirren FC 0-0 St. Johnstone FC.
