Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Columbus Crew SC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' It’s high time Henrik Rydström made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 10' Orlando City 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.
  • 14' GOAL! Marco Pasalic scores on 14. Assisted by Tiago
  • 19' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Orlando City SC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 24' 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.
  • 29' It looks surprising Orlando City SC does not make any changes. Maxime Crepeau has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 34' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Orlando City SC winning 0% of all matches.
  • 35' The supporters are chanting for Taha Habroune. He replaces Wessam Abou Ali on 35 minute.
  • 40' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Rudy Camacho made 279 appearances and scored 12 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 41' Orlando City SC player sees a card in front of him.
  • 43' David Brekalo was booked on 43.
  • 48' 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 Iago suffering a number of foals already.
  • 53' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 53 minutes.
  • 55' Columbus Crew SC receives a card for a hard tackle on 55.
  • 60' Supporters expect more eagerness from Tiago, as he is very good at scoring at Lower.com Field with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 61' Another change for Columbus Crew SC made on 61 minute. Andre Gomes leaves to be changed by Jamal Thiare.
  • 64' Luis Aquino has so much to prove this time. He replaces Eduard Atuesta on 64 minute.
  • 68' The supporters are chanting for Zakaria Taifi. He replaces Griffin Dorsey on 68 minute.
  • 73' It looks like no one’s ball. Columbus Crew SC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 75' Adrian Marin is replacing Iago for the Orlando City SC side.
  • 78' Another substitution for Orlando City SC to replace Robin Jansson by Tahir Reid-Brown on 78 minute.
  • 80' Goal! Diego Rossi scores his 99 goal in 285 matches.

  • 86' That looks like a foul for a card for Marco Pasalic.
  • The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
