Live comments

  • 0' - The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Sunderland AFC is hosting Rochdale AFC for another epic battle.
  • 5' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Gavin Bazunu, as he is very good at scoring at Stadium of Light with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 6' - Rochdale AFC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 6.
  • 7' - Dion Sanderson puts Sunderland AFC on the lead.
  • 12' - 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 Gabriel Osho suffering a number of foals already.
  • 14' - A meaty challenge results in booking for Callum McFadzean on 14.
  • 19' - Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 24' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Rochdale AFC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 29' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 34' - Sunderland AFC is showing some good football. However, Sunderland AFC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 35' - What a strike from Charlie Wyke! The score is 2-0.
  • 40' - Sunderland AFC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 40.
  • 45' - It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Jordan Jones.
  • 50' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 52' - Sunderland AFC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Chris Maguire is hanging Ollie Younger on the field on 52 minute.
  • 57' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Sunderland AFC that had 309 games and scored 395 goals.
  • 58' - That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Kwadwo Baah.
  • 63' - It looks like no one’s ball. Sunderland AFC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 68' - The whistle greets Gabriel Osho as he departs to be replaced by Alex Newby.
