20' Los Angeles Galaxy is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
25' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
30' Colorado Rapids SC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Los Angeles Galaxy backline.
35' 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 John McCarthy suffering a number of foals already.
40' Los Angeles Galaxy have won 480 goals from 282 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
45' A goal from the Ireland international Connor Ronan! He fires home on 45 to make it 1-0!
50' Gabriel Pec has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 50 minutes.
55' Zack Steffen is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Los Angeles Galaxy tonight.

73' It’s gonna be a card for Marky Delgado.
73' Darren Yapi gets the nod from Colorado Rapids SC. He replaces Calvin Harris and will look to change the dynamic.
78' A tactical swap from Los Angeles Galaxy — Gaston Brugman on, Marky Delgado off on 78 minutes.
83' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Colorado Rapids SC that had 275 games and scored 396 goals.
84' Oliver Larraz makes way for Jasper Loffelsend at the 84 minute mark. A tactical switch from Colorado Rapids SC.
88' The Los Angeles Galaxy bench stirs into life. John Nelson is withdrawn and Julian Aude gets his opportunity.
