Events

Match Events

0' In just a few seconds Dignity Health Sports Park will turn into a battlefield for Los Angeles Galaxy and Charlotte FC.
5' Ashley Westwood has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 2 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
10' Los Angeles Galaxy are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
15' Harrison Afful has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
20' It looks surprising Los Angeles Galaxy does not make any changes. Brandt Bronico has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
25' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Los Angeles Galaxy needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
30' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Los Angeles Galaxy and Charlotte FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
35' 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.
40' Javier Hernandez has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 15 cards already picked up this season.
45' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Charlotte FC that had 151 games and scored 221 goals.
46' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Javier Hernandez.
51' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 51 minutes.
56' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Harrison Afful.
61' Time for substitution for Los Angeles Galaxy. Julian Aude is replaced by Raheem Edwards.
66' Charlotte FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
71' Adilson Malanda has been relatively quiet despite scoring 2 goals in his last 340 appearances.
73' What a strike from Karol Swiderski! The score is 0-1.
74' Karol Swiderski adds to his 0 season tally! Charlotte FC lead 0-2 — and this changes everything.
78' The whistle greets Gaston Brugman as he departs to be replaced by Dejan Joveljic.
79' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Kerwin Vargas.
80' Fresh legs for Charlotte FC! Brandon Cambridge comes on to replace Kerwin Vargas.
82' The supporters are chanting for Jan Sobocinski. He replaces Harrison Afful on 82 minute.
85' Javier Hernandez has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Red card on 85.
90' Kelvin Leerdam is ready to make an impact after coming on for Lucas Felipe Calegari at the 90 minute mark.
The points are shared — Los Angeles Galaxy 0-1 Charlotte FC. Honours even.
