Events
Match Events

- 12' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 17' 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 Hany Mukhtar suffering a number of foals already.
- 19' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Jonathan Osorio makes it 0-1.
- 24' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Sean Davis.
- 29' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 34' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
- 39' Hany Mukhtar does the damage! The net is bulging and Nashville SC surge ahead!

- 41' What a moment for Hany Mukhtar! That strike on 41 puts his side firmly in control.
- 44' GOAL! Jonathan Osorio fires home to make it 2-2!
- 49' Magnificent from David Romney! That is 9 goals in 282 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 54' Goal! Federico Bernardeschi scores his 34 goal in 519 matches.
- 59' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 61' Charles Sapong was booked on 61.
- 62' Randall Leal has so much to prove this time. He replaces Teal Bunbury on 62 minute.

- 80' Ayo Akinola is ready to make an impact after coming on for Jesus Jimenez at the 80 minute mark.
