  • 31' Matias Vera has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 36' 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.
  • 38' It’s a booking for Austin FC player. Daniel Pereira gets a Yellow card.

  • 54' A moment of madness from Zan Kolmanic on 54 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Austin FC will be frustrated.
  • 59' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Houston Dynamo needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 64' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 64 minutes.
  • 66' Fresh legs for Houston Dynamo! Ariel Lassiter comes on to replace Fafa Picault.
  • 68' The crowd applauds Moussa Djitte as he leaves the pitch. Orrin McKinze Gaines steps in for Austin FC.
  • 73' The energy levels are beginning to show. Tab Ramos might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 74' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Matias Vera.
  • 76' Griffin Dorsey makes way for Tyler Pasher at the 76 minute mark. A tactical switch from Houston Dynamo.
  • 81' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 83' A tactical swap from Austin FC — Tomas Pochettino on, Sebastian Driussi off on 83 minutes.
  • 84' Tomas Pochettino is ready to make an impact after coming on for Sebastian Driussi at the 84 minute mark.
  • 89' The whistle greets Alexander Ring as he departs to be replaced by Jon Gallagher.
