0' And we are off! D.C. United SC vs New York Red Bulls — let the football do the talking.
5' D.C. United SC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined New York Red Bulls backline.
9' Against the run of play, Kevin Paredes has scored! This game has turned on its head.
14' 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 Dru Yearwood suffering a number of foals already.
19' D.C. United SC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
24' New York Red Bulls started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 24.
29' Ola Kamara needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 2 Yellow cards this season.
34' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both D.C. United SC and New York Red Bulls are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
36' D.C. United SC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 36.
38' Another substitution for D.C. United SC to replace Kevin Paredes by Joseph Mora on 38 minute.
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.
46' The supporters are chanting for Drew Skundrich. He replaces Paul Arriola on 46 minute.
51' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Gerhard Struber will be considering his options from the bench.
56' Austria international Daniel Royer has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
58' Wikelman Carmona is replacing Fabio for the New York Red Bulls side.
63' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
64' Poor challenge from Andy Najar. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
64' The D.C. United SC bench stirs into life. Andy Najar is withdrawn and Chris Odoi-Atsem gets his opportunity.
