Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: Swansea City AFC gets underway.
  • 5' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 10' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 15' It looks surprising Bristol City FC does not make any changes. Nahki Wells has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 20' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Kasey Palmer made 387 appearances and scored 26 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 25' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 30' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 35' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 40' 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 Famara Diedhiou suffering a number of foals already.
  • 45' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 46' It is a substitution in Bristol City FC team. Jack Hunt is replaced by Pedro Pereira on 46 minute.
  • 47' Goal! Connor Roberts scores his 22 goal in 388 matches.
  • 52' Both keepers have barely been tested. Swansea City AFC and Bristol City FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 57' Swansea City AFC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 57.
  • 62' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 67' The Bristol City FC bench stirs into life. Korey Smith is withdrawn and Kasey Palmer gets his opportunity.
  • 68' Niclas Eliasson gets the nod from Bristol City FC. He replaces Ashley Williams and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 72' Mike van der Hoorn makes way for Wayne Routledge at the 72 minute mark. A tactical switch from Swansea City AFC.
  • 77' Korey Smith has been relatively quiet despite scoring 2 goals in his last 392 appearances.
  • 82' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 82 minutes.
  • 83' Yan Dhanda is replacing Conor Gallagher for the Swansea City AFC side.
  • 87' Bristol City FC ring the changes. Nahki Wells has done his job and it is now time for Marley Watkins to step up.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 1-0.
