Events
Match Events
- 0' That's the starting whistle at Nissan Stadium. Ninety minutes of football awaits between Nashville SC and Los Angeles Galaxy.
- 5' Los Angeles Galaxy come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 10' Daniel Lovitz has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 15' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Nashville SC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 20' The 31-year-old Marky Delgado has been sensational this season — 1 goals and 3 assists is a remarkable return.
- 22' It’s a booking for Los Angeles Galaxy player. Sega Coulibaly gets a Yellow card.
- 27' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Derrick Williams.
- 28' Magnificent from Hany Mukhtar! That is 103 goals in 17 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 28' Poor challenge from Riqui Puig. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 29' A stunning finish from Hany Mukhtar — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 31' It’s a booking for Nashville SC player. Walker Zimmerman gets a Yellow card.
- 36' Nashville SC is showing some good football. However, Nashville SC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 41' 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 Jonathan Bond suffering a number of foals already.
- 42' David Romney is having his name booked by the referee on 42.
- 43' Raheem Edwards picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.

- 64' The Los Angeles Galaxy manager makes a substitution. Victor Vazquez departs to be replaced by Douglas Costa.
- 69' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Los Angeles Galaxy that had 297 games and scored 504 goals.
- 71' Luke Haakenson is replacing Shaq Moore for the Nashville SC side.
- 72' The Nashville SC manager makes a substitution. Randall Leal departs to be replaced by Luke Haakenson.
- 77' Supporters expect more eagerness from Chase Gasper, as he is very good at scoring at Nissan Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 78' Los Angeles Galaxy make a change. Derrick Williams trudges off to be replaced by Dejan Joveljic on 78 minutes.
- 81' Sean Davis makes way for Jack Maher at the 81 minute mark. A tactical switch from Nashville SC.
- 84' Shaq Moore was booked on 84.
- 89' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Nashville SC and Los Angeles Galaxy are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
