Events

Match Events

  • 0' Welcome to Molineux Stadium that hosts another battle between Wolverhampton Wanderers FC and Crystal Palace FC.
  • 5' Cheikhou Kouyate has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 10' The energy levels are beginning to show. Patrick Vieira might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 15' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 19' A goal from the France international Jean-Philippe Mateta! He fires home on 19 to make it 0-1!
  • 24' 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.
  • 25' Another change for Wolverhampton Wanderers FC made on 25 minute. Ki-Jana Hoever leaves to be changed by Jonny Castro.
  • 30' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 34' What composure from Wilfried Zaha! The Ivory Coast international strokes it home. 0-2.
  • 39' The travelling Crystal Palace FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 44' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 49' 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 Will Hughes suffering a number of foals already.
  • 53' Crystal Palace FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 58' It looks surprising Wolverhampton Wanderers FC does not make any changes. Max Kilman has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.

  • 75' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 79' Wolverhampton Wanderers FC ring the changes. Max Kilman has done his job and it is now time for Francisco Oliveira to step up.
  • 82' A tactical swap from Crystal Palace FC — Will Hughes on, Michael Olise off on 82 minutes.
  • 87' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 88' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Vicente Guaita.
  • 89' Vicente Guaita has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 89.
  • 90' It’s a booking for Crystal Palace FC player. Will Hughes gets a Yellow card.
  • The points are shared — Wolverhampton Wanderers FC 0-2 Crystal Palace FC. Honours even.
