Events

Match Events

0' The ball is rolling at Lower.com Field. Columbus Crew SC are looking to make home advantage count against San Jose Earthquakes.
5' Daniel Gazdag, a Hungary , has 27 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
10' Max Floriani is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Columbus Crew SC tonight.
15' 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 Max Arfsten suffering a number of foals already.
20' Mohamed Farsi has been relatively quiet despite scoring 7 goals in his last 302 appearances.
25' Columbus Crew SC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
29' What a strike from Sean Zawadzki! The score is 1-0.
34' San Jose Earthquakes are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
39' Vitor Costa is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for San Jose Earthquakes so far.
40' Josef Martinez makes no mistake. The score reads 1-1 and San Jose Earthquakes are in front.
45' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 45 minutes.
48' The supporters are chanting for Preston Judd. He replaces Josef Martinez on 48 minute.
53' With 0 assists to his name this season, Daniel is clearly more than just a goal scorer for San Jose Earthquakes.
54' The whistle greets Jacen Russell-Rowe as he departs to be replaced by Aziel Jackson.
59' San Jose Earthquakes is showing some good football. However, San Jose Earthquakes are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
62' What a strike from Max Arfsten! The score is 2-1.
66' The crowd applauds Vitor Costa as he leaves the pitch. DeJuan Jones steps in for San Jose Earthquakes.
71' The travelling San Jose Earthquakes supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
75' The supporters are chanting for Niko Tsakiris. He replaces Ian Harkes on 75 minute.
80' Columbus Crew SC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined San Jose Earthquakes backline.
