Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Allianz Field. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' Minnesota United FC looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Tomas Chancalay scoring 1 goals.
  • 10' Bongokuhle Hlongwane has been relatively quiet despite scoring 26 goals in his last 289 appearances.
  • 15' 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.
  • 17' The Uruguay Jonathan Rodriguez breaks the deadlock on 17 minutes. 0-1!
  • 22' Colombia international Dairon Asprilla has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 27' 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.
  • 32' 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 Joseph Rosales suffering a number of foals already.
  • 37' With 1 assists to his name this season, Carlos Harvey is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Portland Timbers.
  • 42' Minnesota United FC receives a card for a hard tackle on 42.
  • 44' Evander picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 49' Minnesota United FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 54' Teemu Pukki, a Finland , has 13 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 56' Another change for Minnesota United FC made on 56 minute. Carlos Harvey leaves to be changed by Robin Lod.
  • 58' Fresh legs for Portland Timbers! Eric Miller comes on to replace Felipe Mora.
  • 63' Minnesota United FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 63.
  • 65' What an equalizer from Robin Lod!
  • 67' Miguel Araujo is having his name booked by the referee on 67.
  • 69' Another change for Portland Timbers made on 69 minute. David Ayala leaves to be changed by Antony.
  • 74' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 79' Another substitution for Minnesota United FC to replace Teemu Pukki by D.J. Taylor on 79 minute.
  • 82' Assisted by D.J. Taylor with the perfectly-timed delivery and Sang-bin Jeong makes no mistake. 2-1!
  • 82' A meaty challenge results in booking for Dairon Asprilla on 82.
  • 85' Miguel Araujo makes way for Nathan at the 85 minute mark. A tactical switch from Portland Timbers.
  • 90' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Miguel Tapias.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 2-1.
