Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Gillingham FC kicks off things out of here…
- 2' Kyle Vassell puts Fleetwood Town FC on the lead.
- 7' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 12' 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.
- 17' Gillingham FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 22' Callum Camps needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 27 Yellow cards this season.
- 27' The travelling Gillingham FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 32' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Connor Ogilvie made 182 appearances and scored 16 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 37' It looks surprising Fleetwood Town FC does not make any changes. Vadaine Oliver has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 42' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Fleetwood Town FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 46' The Gillingham FC manager makes a substitution. Ryan Jackson departs to be replaced by Robbie McKenzie.
- 51' John Akinde is replacing Thomas O'Connor for the Gillingham FC side.
- 56' Gillingham FC is showing some good football. However, Gillingham FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 61' 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.
- 66' Paddy Madden has so much to prove this time. He replaces Gerard Garner on 66 minute.
- 69' Time for substitution for Gillingham FC. Jordan Graham is replaced by Alexander MacDonald.
- 74' It looks like no one’s ball. Gillingham FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 79' Fleetwood Town FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 79.
- 83' Sam Finley has so much to prove this time. He replaces Callum Camps on 83 minute.
- 88' 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 Jordan Graham suffering a number of foals already.
- 90' A meaty challenge results in booking for Kyle Vassell on 90.
- Another three points for Fleetwood Town FC.
