Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Wigan Athletic FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Leyton Orient FC looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Tony Springett scoring 1 goals.
- 10' Jensen Weir, a England , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 15' The 25-year-old Scott Smith has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 20' Over 20 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 25' It looks surprising Leyton Orient FC does not make any changes. Paul Dummett has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 30' Babajide Adeeko has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 8 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 32' The referee calls foul for Dominic Ball. He receives a card.
- 34' Jonny Smith has so much to prove this time. He replaces Dion Rankine on 34 minute.
- 39' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jordan Brown made 389 appearances and scored 5 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 41' A stunning finish from Jayden Sweeney — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 46' Another substitution for Wigan Athletic FC to replace Babajide Adeeko by Thelo Aasgaard on 46 minute.
- 49' Wigan Athletic FC receives a card for a hard tackle on 49.
- 54' Wigan Athletic FC currently sit 17 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 59' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 64' 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 Tom James suffering a number of foals already.
- 69' Wigan Athletic FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 71' The Leyton Orient FC bench stirs into life. Sonny Perkins is withdrawn and Ethan Galbraith gets his opportunity.
- 76' Dominic Ball has been relatively quiet despite scoring 2 goals in his last 354 appearances.
- 78' A tactical swap from Wigan Athletic FC — Maleace Asamoah on, Will Aimson off on 78 minutes.
- 80' The whistle greets Jamie Donley as he departs to be replaced by Charlie Kelman.
- 85' Wigan Athletic FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Leyton Orient FC backline.
- 90' Fresh legs for Leyton Orient FC! Diallang Jaiyesimi comes on to replace Daniel Agyei.
- With this win, Leyton Orient FC is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
