Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. D.C. United SC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 10' Chicago Fire FC 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.
  • 15' 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.
  • 20' Jackson Hopkins has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 15 appearances with only 2 goals this season.
  • 25' 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.
  • 30' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 35' The travelling Chicago Fire FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 40' Supporters expect more eagerness from Hosei Kijima, as he is very good at scoring at Audi Field with 2 goals in the last 2 games.
  • 45' It’s high time René Weiler made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 50' D.C. United SC looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker scoring 0 goals.
  • 55' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. D.C. United SC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 60' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 60 minutes.
  • 65' It looks like no one’s ball. D.C. United SC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 70' 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 Jonathan Dean suffering a number of foals already.
  • 75' It looks surprising D.C. United SC does not make any changes. Keisuke Kurokawa has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 80' Chicago Fire FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 85' Chicago Fire FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 85.
  • 90' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Lucas Bartlett made 281 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • The final score is 0-0.
