Events
Match Events
- 0' Welcome to that hosts another battle between Swansea City AFC and Nottingham Forest FC.
- 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Nottingham Forest FC that had 376 games and scored 437 goals.
- 10' Nottingham Forest FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 10.
- 15' Ben Watson is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Swansea City AFC tonight.
- 20' England international Matt Grimes has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 25' With 0 assists to his name this season, Jay Fulton is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Swansea City AFC.
- 30' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 35' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 40' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 42' That is a Yellow card for Nottingham Forest FC. Matty Cash will be fuming at that decision.
- 44' Saidy Janko is having his name booked by the referee on 44.
- 46' A tactical swap from Swansea City AFC — Kyle Naughton on, Jay Fulton off on 46 minutes.
- 51' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 51 minutes.
- 52' It’s a booking for Nottingham Forest FC player. Joe Lolley gets a Yellow card.

- 73' 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 Oliver McBurnie suffering a number of foals already.
- 78' The whistle greets Adlene Guedioura as he departs to be replaced by Ben Watson.
- 83' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
