Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Chicago Fire FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' New England Revolution is showing some good football. However, New England Revolution are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 10' Henry Kessler has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 24 cards already picked up this season.
- 15' New England Revolution looks like a favorite considering 2 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Dor Turgeman scoring 1 goals.
- 18' Chicago Fire FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 18.
- 19' Mauricio Pineda picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 24' New England Revolution has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 2 of the last 2 meetings.
- 29' USA international Andrew Farrell has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 34' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering New England Revolution that had 301 games and scored 434 goals.
- 39' Giacomo Vrioni has been relatively quiet despite scoring 20 goals in his last 533 appearances.
- 44' Chris Mueller catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 44.
- 49' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 54' Omar Gonzalez is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for New England Revolution tonight.
- 57' Controversy at the stadium! Giacomo Vrioni argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- 62' Chicago Fire FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 62.
- 65' Another substitution for New England Revolution to replace Giacomo Vrioni by Dylan Borrero on 65 minute.
- 70' New England Revolution are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 73' The crowd applauds Brian Gutierrez as he leaves the pitch. Stanislav Ivanov steps in for Chicago Fire FC.
- 74' Another substitution for New England Revolution to replace Nacho Gil by Damian Rivera on 74 minute.
- 79' The Chicago Fire FC bench stirs into life. Boris Sekulic is withdrawn and Jhon Espinoza gets his opportunity.
- 84' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Chicago Fire FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 88' What a moment for Dylan Borrero! That strike on 88 puts his side firmly in control.
- 90' Omar Gonzalez is replacing Gustavo Bou for the New England Revolution side.
- The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
