- 15' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 20' 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.
- 22' The referee has no hesitation. Dylan Nealis is booked for New York Red Bulls — card on 22.
- 27' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Dean Smith will be considering his options from the bench.
- 30' What composure from Kerwin Vargas! The Colombia international strokes it home. 1-0.
- 35' Charlotte 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.
