Events

Match Events

  • 0' The wait is over. Chicago Fire FC get us underway at Audi Field.
  • 5' Chicago Fire FC come into this ranked 4 in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 10' Mauricio Pineda has been relatively quiet despite scoring 8 goals in his last 276 appearances.
  • 15' It looks surprising D.C. United SC does not make any changes. Kye Rowles has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 20' 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 Robin Lod suffering a number of foals already.
  • 25' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Philip Zinckernagel made 61 appearances and scored 52 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 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' 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.
  • 45' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with D.C. United SC winning 50% of all matches.
  • 50' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 55' D.C. United SC currently sit 5 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 60' D.C. United SC have won 380 goals from 278 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 65' It looks like no one’s ball. Chicago Fire FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 70' The energy levels are beginning to show. René Weiler might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 75' Brandon Servania, a USA , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 80' D.C. United SC looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker scoring 0 goals.
  • 85' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 85 minutes.
  • 90' Chicago Fire FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
