Events
Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Columbus Crew SC to score. At the same time, Vancouver Whitecaps FC does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 2' GOAL! Ibrahim Aliyu scores on 2. Assisted by Lassi Lappalainen
- 6' What an equalizer from Jean-Claude Ngando!
- 11' 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 Ralph Priso-Mbongue suffering a number of foals already.
- 16' Supporters expect more eagerness from Ranko Veselinovic, as he is very good at scoring at Lower.com Field with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 21' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 23' What a strike from Diego Rossi! The score is 2-1.
- 28' It’s high time Jesper Sørensen made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 32' Tristan Blackmon is having his name booked by the referee on 32.
- 37' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 42' Vancouver Whitecaps FC is showing some good football. However, Vancouver Whitecaps FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 46' Mohamed Farsi has so much to prove this time. He replaces Lassi Lappalainen on 46 minute.
- 51' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 56' Edier Ocampo needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 61' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 64' Another change for Vancouver Whitecaps FC made on 64 minute. Jean-Claude Ngando leaves to be changed by John Selemani.
- 69' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Vancouver Whitecaps FC that had 276 games and scored 424 goals.
- 71' The whistle greets Ralph Priso-Mbongue as he departs to be replaced by Jeevan Badwal.
- 76' 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.
- 81' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
- 85' That looks like a foul for a card for Daniel Gazdag.
- 85' Another substitution for Columbus Crew SC to replace Daniel Gazdag by Taha Habroune on 85 minute.
- 86' Jacen Russell-Rowe is replacing Amar Sejdic for the Columbus Crew SC side.
- Full Time. Columbus Crew SC beats Vancouver Whitecaps FC
