Match Events
- 0' The game is set. AFC Bournemouth kicks off things out of here…
- 5' 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.
- 10' It’s high time Lee Bowyer made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 15' AFC Bournemouth is showing some good football. However, AFC Bournemouth are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 20' 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 Emiliano Hansen suffering a number of foals already.
- 25' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering AFC Bournemouth that had 323 games and scored 365 goals.
- 30' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 35' Birmingham City 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.
