Events

Match Events

0' KICK OFF: Stoke City FC gets underway.
5' Sheffield Wednesday 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.
9' Akin Famewo catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 9.
10' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Wouter Burger.
11' Wouter Burger catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 11.
16' named a 4-3-3 earlier, and opted for a 4-4-1-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
21' Sheffield Wednesday FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
26' It is a cagey affair so far. Stoke City FC in their 4-3-3 trying to find a way past Sheffield Wednesday FC's compact 4-4-1-1.
31' Enda Stevens is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Stoke City FC tonight.
34' Sheffield Wednesday FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 34.
39' With 0 assists to his name this season, Ciaran Clark is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Stoke City FC.
44' Stoke City FC are deployed in a 4-3-3 today, looking to exploit space against Sheffield Wednesday FC's 4-4-1-1 shape.
49' 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 Akin Famewo suffering a number of foals already.
54' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 54 minutes.
58' Anthony Musaba has so much to prove this time. He replaces Bailey Cadamarteri on 58 minute.
63' It looks surprising Stoke City FC does not make any changes. Josh Windass has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.

71' The whistle greets Enda Stevens as he departs to be replaced by Ki-Jana Hoever.
76' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Stoke City FC and Sheffield Wednesday FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
78' Fresh legs for Stoke City FC! Michael Rose comes on to replace Mehdi Leris.
79' It is a substitution in Sheffield Wednesday FC team. George Byers is replaced by Michael Smith on 79 minute.
82' A moment of madness from Luke McNally on 82 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Stoke City FC will be frustrated.
86' Time for substitution for Stoke City FC. Ryan Mmaee is replaced by Andre Vidigal.
88' Ciaran Clark picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
