Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Minnesota United FC gets underway.
- 5' It looks like no one’s ball. Minnesota United FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 10' Moses Nyeman needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 15' Dayne St. Clair has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 11 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 20' The travelling Columbus Crew SC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 25' Columbus Crew 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.
- 30' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Minnesota United FC that had 261 games and scored 388 goals.
- 35' Minnesota United FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 35.
- 40' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 45' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 46' Christian Ramirez is replacing Alexandru Matan for the Columbus Crew SC side.
- 51' It’s high time Cameron Knowles made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 54' That looks like a foul for a card for D.J. Taylor.
- 59' What a strike from Cucho Hernandez! The score is 0-1.
- 60' The supporters are chanting for Tani Oluwaseyi. He replaces Teemu Pukki on 60 minute.
- 61' The Minnesota United FC manager makes a substitution. Caden Clark departs to be replaced by Loic Mesanvi.
- 66' 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 Caden Clark suffering a number of foals already.
- 71' The whistle greets Alejandro Bran as he departs to be replaced by Moses Nyeman.
- 75' It is a substitution in Columbus Crew SC team. Yaw Yeboah is replaced by Yevgen Cheberko on 75 minute.
