Match Events
- 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Charlotte FC and Seattle Sounders FC is underway.
- 5' 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.
- 10' Seattle Sounders FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 11' Seattle Sounders FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Cristian Roldan on 11.
- 16' It looks surprising Charlotte FC does not make any changes. Raul Ruidiaz has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 17' What a strike from Jaylin Lindsey! The score is 1-1.
- 22' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 27' Seattle Sounders FC is showing some good football. However, Seattle Sounders FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 32' Seattle Sounders 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.
- 36' Seattle Sounders FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Raul Ruidiaz on 36.
- 41' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Yeimar Gomez made 162 appearances and scored 16 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 46' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Seattle Sounders FC that had 284 games and scored 450 goals.
- 51' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 53' Goal! Ashley Westwood scores his 14 goal in 342 matches.
- 58' 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 Joshua Atencio suffering a number of foals already.
