Events

Match Events

  • 0' The wait is over. Nashville SC get us underway at Geodis Park.
  • 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Nashville SC that had 219 games and scored 320 goals.
  • 10' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 15' The travelling Philadelphia Union supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 20' With 1 assists to his name this season, Daniel Lovitz is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Nashville SC.
  • 25' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Nashville SC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 30' The 32-year-old Jeisson Palacios has been sensational this season — 1 goals and 1 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 35' Indiana Vassilev, a USA , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 40' 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.
  • 45' Danley Jean Jacques is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Nashville SC tonight.
  • 46' Cavan Sullivan was booked on 46.
  • 51' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 56' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Philadelphia Union winning 0% of all matches.
  • 61' Another change for Philadelphia Union made on 61 minute. Chris Donovan leaves to be changed by Tai Baribo.
  • 63' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Jonathan Perez on 63 minutes.
  • 68' Edvard Tagseth has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 71' That looks like a foul for a card for Kai Wagner.
  • 72' Alejandro Bedoya is ready to make an impact after coming on for Indiana Vassilev at the 72 minute mark.
  • 73' A moment of madness from Jacob Glesnes on 73 minutes earns him a card. Philadelphia Union will be frustrated.
  • 78' Nashville SC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Philadelphia Union backline.
  • 79' That looks like a foul for a card for Ben Bender.
  • 79' It is a substitution in Nashville SC team. Alex Muyl is replaced by Ahmed Qasem on 79 minute.
  • 82' The supporters are chanting for Josh Bauer. He replaces Andy Najar on 82 minute.
  • 87' Nashville SC 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.
  • 89' The referee shows Nashville SC player a card on 89.
  • 90' It is a substitution in Nashville SC team. Sam Surridge is replaced by Teal Bunbury on 90 minute.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Nashville SC players.
