Events
Match Events
- 0' Wycombe Wanderers FC have kicked off against Portsmouth FC. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
- 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Shamal George, as he is very good at scoring at Adams Park with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 8' Nathan Bishop is replacing Shamal George for the Wycombe Wanderers FC side.
- 13' With 0 assists to his name this season, Tom McIntyre is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Wycombe Wanderers FC.
- 17' Goal! Brandon Hanlan scores his 35 goal in 182 matches.
- 22' The travelling Portsmouth FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 27' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Sonny Bradley makes it 2-0.
- 32' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 37' Owen Moxon has been relatively quiet despite scoring 4 goals in his last 57 appearances.
- 42' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 46' Ryley Towler is ready to make an impact after coming on for Robert Atkinson at the 46 minute mark.
- 51' Portsmouth FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 56' Portsmouth FC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 61' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 62' It is a substitution in Portsmouth FC team. Jordan Williams is replaced by Zak Swanson on 62 minute.
- 63' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Daniel Harvie.
- 68' 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 Garath McCleary suffering a number of foals already.
- 73' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Portsmouth FC that had 371 games and scored 525 goals.

- Portsmouth FC will have plenty to reflect on. Wycombe Wanderers FC were simply the better side today.
