Events

  • 23' Houston Dynamo fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 28' 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 Fernando Alvarez suffering a number of foals already.
  • 33' A meaty challenge results in booking for Samuel Piette on 33.
  • 38' The 22-year-old Nathan-Dylan Saliba has been sensational this season — 1 goals and 1 assists is a remarkable return.

  • 75' Lassi Lappalainen is replacing Kwadwo Opoku for the Montreal Impact FC side.
