Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Audi Field. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 10' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 10 minutes.
- 15' Lucas Felipe Calegari needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 20' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 25' 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.
- 30' D.C. United SC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 35' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 40' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Dejan Joveljic made 245 appearances and scored 62 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

- 60' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
