Events

Match Events

  • 0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Austin FC is hosting Houston Dynamo for another epic battle.
  • 5' Facundo Torres Perez has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 1 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
  • 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Houston Dynamo that had 275 games and scored 385 goals.
  • 13' What a strike from Jayden Nelson! The score is 1-0.
  • 18' Supporters expect more eagerness from Diadie Samassekou, as he is very good at scoring at Q2 Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 23' Austin 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.
  • 27' Brendan Hines-Ike is having his name booked by the referee on 27.
  • 32' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 32 minutes.
  • 37' Jack McGlynn needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 11 Yellow cards this season.
  • 40' Austin FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Jon Gallagher is hanging Jayden Nelson on the field on 40 minute.
  • 45' That looks like a foul for a card for Artur.
  • 46' Antonio Carlos has so much to prove this time. He replaces Agustin Resch on 46 minute.
  • 47' What a strike from Myrto Uzuni! The score is 2-0.
  • 52' 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 Ibrahim Aliyu suffering a number of foals already.
  • 55' Another change for Houston Dynamo made on 55 minute. Sam Vines leaves to be changed by Jack McGlynn.
  • 59' Joseph Rosales was booked on 59.
  • 64' Houston Dynamo is showing some good football. However, Houston Dynamo are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 65' CJ Fodrey is replacing Christian Ramirez for the Austin FC side.
  • 66' Nicolas Dubersarsky is replacing Ilie Sanchez for the Austin FC side.
  • 70' It’s a booking for Austin FC player. Mikkel Desler gets a card.
  • 72' The referee shows Austin FC player a card on 72.
  • 75' Houston Dynamo manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Nick Markanich is hanging Hector Herrera on the field on 75 minute.
  • 80' Houston Dynamo player sees a card in front of him.
  • 82' The supporters are chanting for Ibrahim Aliyu. He replaces Felipe on 82 minute.
  • 84' The Austin FC manager makes a substitution. Guilherme Biro departs to be replaced by Jon Bell.
  • 89' The travelling Houston Dynamo supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 2-0.
