42' Kellyn Acosta, a USA , has 41 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
47' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Dylan Borrero made 473 appearances and scored 8 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
50' A meaty challenge results in booking for Nick Lima on 50.
54' It is a substitution in Chicago Fire FC team. Rafael Czichos is replaced by Carlos Teran on 54 minute.

83' It’s gonna be a card for Allan Arigoni.
83' A tactical swap from New England Revolution — Noel Buck on, Xavier Arreaga off on 83 minutes.
88' Ryan Spaulding has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 14 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
