Events

Match Events

  • 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Wolverhampton Wanderers FC and Newcastle United FC get this one started.
  • 5' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 10' Wolverhampton Wanderers FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 15' Wolverhampton Wanderers FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Newcastle United FC backline.
  • 20' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 25' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 28' A meaty challenge results in booking for Nelson Semedo on 28.
  • 33' Wolverhampton Wanderers FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 38' Wolverhampton Wanderers FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Ruben Neves on 38.
  • 43' Newcastle United FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 46' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Fabian Schar on 46 minutes.
  • 51' 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 Elliot Anderson suffering a number of foals already.
  • 56' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 56 minutes.
  • 58' Pedro Neto has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 58.
  • 63' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 65' Newcastle United FC make a change. Dan Burn trudges off to be replaced by Matt Targett on 65 minutes.
  • 70' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 75' Brazil international Joelinton has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 80' Jonny Otto has been relatively quiet despite scoring 8 goals in his last 343 appearances.
  • 81' The deadlock is broken! Raul Jimenez gets on the scoresheet on 81 minutes.
  • 83' Daniel Podence gets the nod from Wolverhampton Wanderers FC. He replaces Goncalo Guedes and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 84' The whistle greets Miguel Almiron as he departs to be replaced by Elliot Anderson.
  • 89' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Matt Targett made 348 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 90' Magnificent from Allan Saint-Maximin! That is 23 goals in 442 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 90' Wolverhampton Wanderers FC make a change. Joao Moutinho trudges off to be replaced by Leander Dendoncker on 90 minutes.
  • Game over. The scoreline of 1-1 tells the full story of an entertaining encounter.
