Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Colorado Rapids SC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Darren Yapi, as he is very good at scoring at TQL Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 10' It’s high time Pat Noonan made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 15' 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 Alec Kann suffering a number of foals already.
- 17' Another change for FC Cincinnati made on 17 minute. DeAndre Yedlin leaves to be changed by Bret Halsey.
- 22' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. FC Cincinnati needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 26' Matt Miazga is having his name booked by the referee on 26.
- 31' Luca Orellano has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 15 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 36' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 36 minutes.
- 41' The travelling Colorado Rapids SC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 42' FC Cincinnati is taking the lead after the goal scored by Luciano Acosta on 42.
- 47' FC Cincinnati is showing some good football. However, FC Cincinnati are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 52' Colorado Rapids 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.

- 81' It’s gonna be a card for Moise Bombito.
- 86' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Colorado Rapids SC that had 251 games and scored 381 goals.
