Events

Match Events

0' The wait is over. Austin FC get us underway at Q2 Stadium.
5' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Austin FC and Houston Dynamo are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
10' USA international Jack McGlynn has been a key figure this campaign — 2 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
13' The Canada Jayden Nelson breaks the deadlock on 13 minutes. 1-0!
18' Agustin Resch has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
23' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Austin FC that had 188 games and scored 263 goals.
27' It’s gonna be a card for Brendan Hines-Ike.
32' The travelling Houston Dynamo supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
37' Diadie Samassekou needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
40' A change in the Austin FC ranks — Jayden Nelson exits the field as Jon Gallagher enters on 40.
45' It’s a booking for Houston Dynamo player. Artur gets a card.
46' Agustin Resch makes way for Antonio Carlos at the 46 minute mark. A tactical switch from Houston Dynamo.
47' A goal from the Albania international Myrto Uzuni! He fires home on 45 to make it 2-0!
52' Supporters expect more eagerness from Ilie Sanchez, as he is very good at scoring at Q2 Stadium with 2 goals in the last 2 games.
55' Another change for Houston Dynamo made on 55 minute. Sam Vines leaves to be changed by Jack McGlynn.
59' Austin FC receives a card for a hard tackle on 59.
64' 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 Guilherme Biro suffering a number of foals already.
65' The Austin FC manager makes a substitution. Christian Ramirez departs to be replaced by CJ Fodrey.
66' Nicolas Dubersarsky is ready to make an impact after coming on for Ilie Sanchez at the 66 minute mark.
70' That looks like a foul for a card for Mikkel Desler.
72' The referee calls foul for Facundo Torres Perez. He receives a card.
75' Hector Herrera makes way for Nick Markanich at the 75 minute mark. A tactical switch from Houston Dynamo.
80' It’s a booking for Houston Dynamo player. Lawrence Ennali gets a card.
82' The crowd applauds Felipe as he leaves the pitch. Ibrahim Aliyu steps in for Houston Dynamo.
84' Austin FC ring the changes. Guilherme Biro has done his job and it is now time for Jon Bell to step up.
89' The 34-year-old Erik Sviatchenko has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
The points are shared — Austin FC 2-0 Houston Dynamo. Honours even.
