Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Rotherham United FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Bristol City FC is showing some good football. However, Bristol City FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 10' Rotherham United FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 15' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 15 minutes.
- 20' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 25' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 30' Haydon Roberts has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 37 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 31' A meaty challenge results in booking for Dillon Phillips on 31.
- 32' GOAL! Tommy Conway scores on 32.
- 37' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Bristol City FC that had 387 games and scored 433 goals.

- 51' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Rotherham United FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 56' 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 Anis Mehmeti suffering a number of foals already.
- 57' What a strike from Scott Twine! The score is 2-0.
