  • 22' Josef Martinez has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 27' Columbus Crew SC 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.
  • 31' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Darlington Nagbe.
  • 31' Time for substitution for Columbus Crew SC. Harrison Afful is replaced by Hector Jimenez.
  • 36' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.

  • 44' Columbus Crew SC has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 2 of the last 2 meetings.

  • 64' The referee calls foul for Mikey Ambrose. He receives a Yellow card.

  • 81' Time for substitution for Columbus Crew SC. Pedro Santos is replaced by Justin Meram.
