Events
Match Events
- 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Stoke City FC and Bristol City FC get this one started.
- 5' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 10' The energy levels are beginning to show. Michael O'Neill might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 15' It looks surprising Bristol City FC does not make any changes. Timm Klose has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 20' It’s high time Michael O'Neill made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 25' Bristol City FC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 30' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 35' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 40' Bristol City FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 45' Poor challenge from Jacob Brown. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.

- 62' The whistle greets Mario Vrancic as he departs to be replaced by Romaine Sawyers.
- 67' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 72' 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 Chris Martin suffering a number of foals already.
- 73' Fresh legs for Stoke City FC! Tyrese Campbell comes on to replace William Forrester.
- 76' Bristol City FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 76.

- 90' Nahki Wells gets the nod from Bristol City FC. He replaces Antoine Semenyo and will look to change the dynamic.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Bristol City FC players.
