Events

Match Events

0' KICK OFF: Seattle Sounders FC gets underway.
5' Stefan Frei is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Seattle Sounders FC so far.
10' What composure from Javier Hernandez! The Mexico international strokes it home. 1-0.
15' Gaston Brugman is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Los Angeles Galaxy tonight.
20' Seattle Sounders FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 20.
25' Both keepers have barely been tested. Los Angeles Galaxy and Seattle Sounders FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
30' The travelling Seattle Sounders FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
35' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
40' A quiet spell here at Dignity Health Sports Park. Los Angeles Galaxy seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
42' What composure from Victor Vazquez! The Spain international strokes it home. 2-0.
47' The home supporters are growing impatient. Los Angeles Galaxy must find a spark to ignite this game.
49' Samuel Grandsir has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 49.
53' A goal from the USA international Kelyn Rowe! He fires home on 53 to make it 2-1!
58' Victor Vazquez was booked on 58.
61' GOAL! Raul Ruidiaz fires home to make it 2-2!
62' The whistle greets Victor Vazquez as he departs to be replaced by Riqui Puig.
67' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Will Bruin made 292 appearances and scored 28 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
70' A tactical swap from Los Angeles Galaxy — Dejan Joveljic on, Javier Hernandez off on 70 minutes.
71' The Los Angeles Galaxy bench stirs into life. Samuel Grandsir is withdrawn and Eriq Zavaleta gets his opportunity.
73' Seattle Sounders FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Jordan Morris on 73.
75' Nicolas Lodeiro was booked on 75.
78' Another substitution for Seattle Sounders FC to replace Kelyn Rowe by Jimmy Medranda on 78 minute.
83' Raul Ruidiaz makes way for Jackson Ragen at the 83 minute mark. A tactical switch from Seattle Sounders FC.
86' Jordan Morris makes way for Will Bruin at the 86 minute mark. A tactical switch from Seattle Sounders FC.
90' Yeimar Gomez has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 90.
Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 3-3 draw is a fair result on the day.
