Events
Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Chicago Fire FC to score. At the same time, New England Revolution does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 2' Jonathan Bamba adds to his 0 season tally! Chicago Fire FC lead 1-0 — and this changes everything.
- 7' Alhassan Yusuf is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for New England Revolution tonight.
- 10' Philip Zinckernagel adds to his 5 season tally! Chicago Fire FC lead 2-0 — and this changes everything.
- 15' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Chicago Fire FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 20' Chicago Fire 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.
- 25' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 25 minutes.
- 30' 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 Brandon Bye suffering a number of foals already.
- 35' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 40' 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.
