Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Birmingham City FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Alex Cochrane made 324 appearances and scored 6 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 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 Jonson Clarke-Harris suffering a number of foals already.
- 13' It’s a booking for Birmingham City FC player. Tomoki Iwata gets a card.
- 14' Birmingham City FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Tomoki Iwata on 14.
