Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Fratton Park. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' That looks like a foul for a card for Ryan Bennett.
- 10' Portsmouth FC is showing some good football. However, Portsmouth FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 15' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Will Norris made 331 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 20' 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.
- 25' Cambridge United 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.
- 30' Cambridge United FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.

- 55' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
