Events

Match Events

  • 0' FC Cincinnati have kicked off against D.C. United SC. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
  • 5' Andrew Gutman has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 10' Ola Kamara has been relatively quiet despite scoring 65 goals in his last 286 appearances.
  • 13' Controversy at the stadium! Mathieu Deplagne argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 18' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 23' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 28' D.C. United SC have won 386 goals from 285 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 33' With 0 assists to his name this season, Ulises Segura is clearly more than just a goal scorer for D.C. United SC.
  • 35' It’s a booking for D.C. United SC player. Russell Canouse gets a Yellow card.
  • 37' It’s a booking for FC Cincinnati player. Caleb Stanko gets a Yellow card.
  • 42' FC Cincinnati are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 46' A tactical swap from FC Cincinnati — Allan Cruz on, Siem de Jong off on 46 minutes.
  • 51' FC Cincinnati are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined D.C. United SC backline.
  • 56' Mohammed Abu has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 60' Fresh legs for D.C. United SC! Edison Flores comes on to replace Ola Kamara.
  • 65' 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.
  • 67' FC Cincinnati make a change. Caleb Stanko trudges off to be replaced by Adrien Regattin on 67 minutes.
  • 72' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. D.C. United SC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 75' Another change for D.C. United SC made on 75 minute. Yamil Asad leaves to be changed by Federico Higuain.
  • 80' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 80 minutes.
  • 85' 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 Tom Pettersson suffering a number of foals already.
  • 87' Mohammed Abu has so much to prove this time. He replaces Frederic Brillant on 87 minute.
  • 88' Poor challenge from Edison Flores. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
  • 90' Mohammed Abu catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 90.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 0-0.
