Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Molineux Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' The home supporters are growing impatient. Wolverhampton Wanderers FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 10' Beram Kayal gets the nod from Brighton & Hove Albion FC. He replaces Davy Propper and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 15' Rui Patricio is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Wolverhampton Wanderers FC so far.
  • 20' The 34-year-old Shane Duffy has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.

  • 37' Wolverhampton Wanderers FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Brighton & Hove Albion FC backline.
  • 42' Wolverhampton Wanderers FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 47' Brighton & Hove Albion 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.
  • 52' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Gaetan Bong made 346 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 57' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 62' Adama Traore is a natural forward and has been asked to do a very specific job for Wolverhampton Wanderers FC tonight.
  • 67' The Wolverhampton Wanderers FC bench stirs into life. Jonny Castro is withdrawn and Ruben Vinagre gets his opportunity.
  • 70' A change in the Brighton & Hove Albion FC ranks — Bruno exits the field as Bernardo enters on 70.

  • 78' Brighton & Hove Albion FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 83' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Nuno Espírito Santo will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 84' A change in the Wolverhampton Wanderers FC ranks — Matt Doherty exits the field as Adama Traore enters on 84.
  • 89' 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 Bruno suffering a number of foals already.
  • The referee brings this contest to a close. take all three points.
