- 5' Claude Dielna needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 10' Hungary international Krisztian Nemeth has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 15' Supporters expect more eagerness from Ian Harkes, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 20' It looks surprising New England Revolution does not make any changes. Patrick Mullins has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 25' D.C. United SC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 30' Zoltan Stieber has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 35' Both keepers have barely been tested. New England Revolution and D.C. United SC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 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.

- 50' Chris Durkin has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 1 goals to his name this season.
- 55' New England Revolution are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined D.C. United SC backline.
- 60' D.C. United 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.
- 65' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both New England Revolution and D.C. United SC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 70' 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 Junior Moreno suffering a number of foals already.
- 75' Over 75 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 80' Luciano Acosta has been relatively quiet despite scoring 81 goals in his last 281 appearances.
