Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' The home supporters are growing impatient. Atlanta United FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 7' The Greece Giorgos Giakoumakis breaks the deadlock on 7 minutes. 1-0!
- 8' What a strike from Giorgos Giakoumakis! The score is 2-0.
- 10' The referee calls foul for Cory Burke. He receives a Yellow card.
- 15' Luiz Araujo is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for New York Red Bulls so far.
- 20' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. New York Red Bulls needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 25' Sean Nealis has been relatively quiet despite scoring 4 goals in his last 283 appearances.
- 30' Cory Burke has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 34' Controversy at the stadium! Luiz Araujo argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- 39' New York Red Bulls is showing some good football. However, New York Red Bulls are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 43' Kyle Duncan has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 43.
- 45' It’s a booking for New York Red Bulls player. Christian Casseres Jr. gets a Yellow card.
- 46' The New York Red Bulls manager makes a substitution. Andres Reyes departs to be replaced by Dylan Nealis.
- 51' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 55' Poor challenge from Giorgos Giakoumakis. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 60' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Gerhard Struber will be considering his options from the bench.
- 65' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering New York Red Bulls that had 283 games and scored 418 goals.
- 70' It looks surprising Atlanta United FC does not make any changes. Brad Guzan has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 73' The whistle greets Amar Sejdic as he departs to be replaced by Matheus Rossetto.
- 78' 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 Thiago Almada suffering a number of foals already.
- 82' The whistle greets Luquinhas as he departs to be replaced by Dru Yearwood.
- 87' 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.
- 90' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Matheus Rossetto.
- 90' Another change for New York Red Bulls made on 90 minute. Peter Stroud leaves to be changed by Tom Barlow.
- It finishes all square. Atlanta United FC and New York Red Bulls share the spoils 1-0.
