Match Events
- 0' It’s Showtime! The match between D.C. United SC and Seattle Sounders FC is underway.

- 19' 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.
- 21' Time for substitution for Seattle Sounders FC. Danny Musovski is replaced by Obed Vargas.
- 26' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Stefan Frei made 284 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 28' It’s gonna be a card for Stefan Frei.
- 31' Another change for Seattle Sounders FC made on 31 minute. Leo Chu leaves to be changed by Andrew Thomas.
- 32' GOAL! Christian Benteke scores on 32.
- 37' Seattle Sounders 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.
- 38' Lucas Bartlett was booked on 38.
- 41' Seattle Sounders FC receives a card for a hard tackle on 41.
- 42' A meaty challenge results in booking for Jared Stroud on 42.
- 45' D.C. United SC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Christian Benteke on 45.
- 50' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Seattle Sounders FC that had 284 games and scored 450 goals.

- 67' The referee calls foul for Jackson Hopkins. He receives a card.
- 72' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
