Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Bet365 Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' Abdulkadir Omur has been relatively quiet despite scoring 0 goals in his last 18 appearances.
- 10' Regan Slater has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 2 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 15' Hull City AFC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 20' Stoke City FC are deployed in a 4-4-1-1 today, looking to exploit space against Hull City AFC's 4-3-3 shape.
- 25' Xavier Simons, a England , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 30' Brilliant from the ! Ben Wilmot makes it 1-0 with a superb finish on 30.
- 35' It’s high time Steven Schumacher made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 40' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Stoke City FC that had 380 games and scored 400 goals.
- 45' Both keepers have barely been tested. Stoke City FC and Hull City AFC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 46' The whistle greets Abdulkadir Omur as he departs to be replaced by Liam Millar.
- 51' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Liam Millar made 260 appearances and scored 12 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 56' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 58' Hull City AFC make a change. Marvin Mehlem trudges off to be replaced by Regan Slater on 58 minutes.
- 59' Hull City AFC ring the changes. Oscar Zambrano has done his job and it is now time for Xavier Simons to step up.
- 60' Emre Tezgel is ready to make an impact after coming on for Lewis Koumas at the 60 minute mark.
- 63' What a strike from Kasey Palmer! The score is 1-1.
- 63' Ben Gibson is having his name booked by the referee on 63.
- 68' 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 Wouter Burger suffering a number of foals already.
- 73' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 77' What a moment for Regan Slater! That strike on 77 puts his side firmly in control.
- 79' What composure from Ben Wilmot! The England international strokes it home. 2-2.
- 81' Tatsuki Seko is replacing Jordan Thompson for the Stoke City FC side.
- 84' Finley Burns gets the nod from Hull City AFC. He replaces Kasey Palmer and will look to change the dynamic.
- 85' Emre Tezgel is having his name booked by the referee on 85.
- 87' Ben Wilmot has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 87.
- 89' A moment of madness from Liam Millar on 89 minutes earns him a card. Hull City AFC will be frustrated.
- 90' A change in the Stoke City FC ranks — Eric Bocat exits the field as Niall Ennis enters on 90.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Stoke City FC.
