- 5' Internacional CF Miami started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 5.
- 10' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

- 15' Philadelphia Union is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 20' The 29-year-old Joaquin Torres has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
