Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: Los Angeles Galaxy gets underway.
  • 5' Quincy Amarikwa has been relatively quiet despite scoring 3 goals in his last 283 appearances.
  • 10' The energy levels are beginning to show. Guillermo Schelotto might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 15' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His D.C. United SC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 20' Diego Polenta is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Los Angeles Galaxy so far.
  • 25' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 28' Goal! Paul Arriola scores his 45 goal in 281 matches.
  • 33' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 38' 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 Frederic Brillant suffering a number of foals already.
  • 43' 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.
  • 48' GOAL! Fabio Alvarez scores on 48.
  • 53' Supporters expect more eagerness from Steve Birnbaum, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 58' D.C. United SC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 63' D.C. United 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.
  • 68' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 73' What a strike from Lucas Rodriguez! The score is 2-1.
  • 75' The referee has no hesitation. Quincy Amarikwa is booked for D.C. United SC — Yellow card on 75.
  • 78' The Los Angeles Galaxy manager makes a substitution. Perry Kitchen departs to be replaced by Sebastian Lletget.
  • 83' Bill Hamid is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Los Angeles Galaxy tonight.
  • 84' The Los Angeles Galaxy bench stirs into life. Uriel Antuna is withdrawn and Chris Pontius gets his opportunity.
  • 89' 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.
  • 90' A change in the Los Angeles Galaxy ranks — Rolf Feltscher exits the field as Julian Araujo enters on 90.
  • Full Time. D.C. United SC beats Los Angeles Galaxy
