Match Events
- 0' Welcome to Abbey Stadium that hosts another battle between Cambridge United FC and Sunderland AFC.
- 5' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 10' 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 Corry Evans suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' GOAL! Dimitar Mitov scores on 15. Assisted by Lynden Gooch
- 20' It looks like no one’s ball. Cambridge United FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 24' Sunderland AFC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 24.
- 27' What an equalizer from Sam Smith!
- 32' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 32 minutes.
- 36' Sensational shot from Nathan Broadhead. Sunderland AFC is back in the lead.
- 41' Sunderland AFC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 41.
- 46' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 51' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Sunderland AFC that had 348 games and scored 398 goals.
- 56' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 61' It’s high time Mark Bonner made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 66' Cambridge United FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 71' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Joe Ironside made 10 appearances and scored 19 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 76' 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.
- 77' The Cambridge United FC manager makes a substitution. James Brophy departs to be replaced by Harvey Knibbs.
- 79' Another change for Sunderland AFC made on 79 minute. Alex Pritchard leaves to be changed by Will Harris.
- 84' Ron-Thorben Hoffmann needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 89' It looks surprising Cambridge United FC does not make any changes. Harrison Dunk has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Sunderland AFC players.
