- 5' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
- 10' Gary Roberts is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Luton Town FC so far.
- 15' 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 Izzy Brown suffering a number of foals already.
- 20' Luton Town FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 25' Wigan Athletic FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.

- 35' Luton Town FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.

- 60' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Luton Town FC that had 382 games and scored 465 goals.
- 63' The supporters are chanting for Michael Jacobs. He replaces Gavin Massey on 63 minute.
- 68' It looks surprising Wigan Athletic FC does not make any changes. Matthew Pearson has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.

- 78' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Kazenga Lualua made 382 appearances and scored 7 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 81' Joe Garner gets the nod from Wigan Athletic FC. He replaces Jamal Lowe and will look to change the dynamic.
