Events
Match Events
- 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Swansea City AFC and Charlton Athletic FC get this one started.
- 5' Luke Chambers is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Swansea City AFC so far.
- 10' Over 10 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 15' named a 4-2-3-1 earlier, and opted for a 3-4-2-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
- 20' 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 Goncalo Franco suffering a number of foals already.
- 25' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 30' Charlton Athletic FC come into this ranked 19 in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 35' Josh Key needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 11 Yellow cards this season.
- 40' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 45' The home supporters are growing impatient. Swansea City AFC must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 50' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 55' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Nathan Jones will be considering his options from the bench.
- 60' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 65' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Swansea City AFC and Charlton Athletic FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 70' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 74' Magnificent from Adam Idah! That is 40 goals in 368 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 79' The England Miles Leaburn breaks the deadlock on 79 minutes. 1-1!
- 82' Adam Idah makes no mistake. The score reads 2-1 and Swansea City AFC are in front.
- 87' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Charlton Athletic FC that had 378 games and scored 485 goals.
- 88' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Leo Walta makes it 3-1.
- Swansea City AFC celebrates a vital win. Three points that could prove pivotal come season's end.
