  • 34' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 39' Joe Allen has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 44' Stoke City FC have won 404 goals from 384 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.

  • 56' The crowd applauds Josh McEachran as he leaves the pitch. Kamohelo Mokotjo steps in for Brentford FC.

  • 68' Fresh legs for Brentford FC! Said Benrahma comes on to replace Sergi Canos.
  • 73' Brentford FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 73.
  • 77' Peter Crouch has so much to prove this time. He replaces Darren Fletcher on 77 minute.
  • 82' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Gary Rowett will be considering his options from the bench.
