Match Events

0' Welcome to Nissan Stadium that hosts another battle between Nashville SC and Atlanta United FC.
5' Daniel Lovitz has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
10' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Nashville SC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
15' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Andrew Gutman made 264 appearances and scored 16 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
19' The whistle greets Eric Miller as he departs to be replaced by Jack Maher.
24' A goal from the international Charles Sapong! He fires home on 24 to make it 1-0!
25' The deadlock is broken! Charles Sapong gets on the scoresheet on 25 minutes.
26' Thiago Almada is having a superb {COMPETITION} campaign — that is 3 goals this season for the midfielder.
31' Magnificent from Hany Mukhtar! That is 103 goals in 17 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
33' Franco Ibarra was booked on 33.
34' The referee has no hesitation. Franco Ibarra is booked for Atlanta United FC — Yellow card on 34.
39' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Nashville SC that had 231 games and scored 341 goals.
44' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Nashville SC and Atlanta United FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
46' The whistle greets Andrew Gutman as he departs to be replaced by Ronald Hernandez.
51' Nashville SC looks like a favorite considering 2 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Shak Mohammed scoring 2 goals.
56' Atlanta United FC 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.
59' That is a Yellow card for Nashville SC. Anibal Godoy will be fuming at that decision.
62' Nashville SC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Dax McCarty is hanging Anibal Godoy on the field on 62 minute.
67' The travelling Atlanta United FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
72' Nashville SC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
74' Atlanta United FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. George Campbell is hanging Alex De John on the field on 74 minute.

80' Fresh legs for Nashville SC! Ethan Zubak comes on to replace Charles Sapong.
82' A moment of madness from Alex Muyl on 82 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Nashville SC will be frustrated.
83' That is a Yellow card for Nashville SC. Ethan Zubak will be fuming at that decision.
85' It is a substitution in Atlanta United FC team. Matheus Rossetto is replaced by Emerson Hyndman on 85 minute.
88' Dominic Dwyer adds to his 0 season tally! Atlanta United FC lead 3-2 — and this changes everything.
90' Time for substitution for Atlanta United FC. Marcelino Moreno is replaced by Amar Sejdic.
