Events

Match Events

  • 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and Minnesota United FC launch into their encounter with Portland Timbers.
  • 5' It’s high time Eric Ramsay made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 10' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 10 minutes.
  • 15' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with Portland Timbers winning 50% of all matches.
  • 17' Jonathan Rodriguez doubles the advantage! 0-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 22' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 27' Minnesota United FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 32' Both keepers have barely been tested. Minnesota United FC and Portland Timbers are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 37' 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 Dairon Asprilla suffering a number of foals already.
  • 42' That looks like a foul for a card for Miguel Tapias.
  • 44' Controversy at the stadium! Evander argues furiously but the card stands.
  • 49' Portland Timbers looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Vincent Janssen scoring 3 goals.
  • 54' The home supporters are growing impatient. Minnesota United FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 56' It is a substitution in Minnesota United FC team. Carlos Harvey is replaced by Robin Lod on 56 minute.
  • 58' Fresh legs for Portland Timbers! Eric Miller comes on to replace Felipe Mora.
  • 63' Diego Chara has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 34 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 65' Magnificent from Robin Lod! That is 39 goals in 301 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 67' Miguel Araujo has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 67.
  • 69' The crowd applauds David Ayala as he leaves the pitch. Antony steps in for Portland Timbers.
  • 74' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 79' Minnesota United FC make a change. Teemu Pukki trudges off to be replaced by D.J. Taylor on 79 minutes.
  • 82' A stunning finish from Sang-bin Jeong — that came from absolutely nowhere!
  • 82' Portland Timbers receives a card for a hard tackle on 82.
  • 85' Nathan has so much to prove this time. He replaces Miguel Araujo on 85 minute.
  • 90' Miguel Tapias is having his name booked by the referee on 90.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Minnesota United FC players.
