Events
Match Events
- 0' It’s Showtime! The match between New England Revolution and FC Cincinnati is underway.
- 5' USA international Spencer Richey has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 10' 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 Nick Hagglund suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' Kenny Saief has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 20' New England Revolution are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined FC Cincinnati backline.
- 25' Corben Bone is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for New England Revolution tonight.
- 30' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both New England Revolution and FC Cincinnati are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 35' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 40' FC Cincinnati is showing some good football. However, FC Cincinnati are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 44' Goal! Kekuta Manneh scores his 5 goal in 3 matches.
- 49' It looks surprising New England Revolution does not make any changes. Diego Fagundez has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 52' Antonio Delamea Mlinar catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 52.
- 53' A change in the New England Revolution ranks — Wilfried Zahibo exits the field as Scott Caldwell enters on 53.
- 58' With 3 assists to his name this season, Brandon Bye is clearly more than just a goal scorer for FC Cincinnati.
- 63' New England Revolution has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 2 of the last 2 meetings.
- 65' Kenny Saief adds to his 0 season tally! FC Cincinnati lead 0-2 — and this changes everything.
- 66' Juan Caicedo has so much to prove this time. He replaces Teal Bunbury on 66 minute.
- 71' Roland Lamah has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 34 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 73' FC Cincinnati receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 73.
- 74' That is a Yellow card for New England Revolution. Diego Fagundez will be fuming at that decision.
- 77' The supporters are chanting for Eric Alexander. He replaces Kenny Saief on 77 minute.
- 78' The New England Revolution manager makes a substitution. Edgar Castillo departs to be replaced by DeJuan Jones.
- 81' Time for substitution for FC Cincinnati. Emmanuel Ledesma is replaced by Caleb Stanko.
- 86' FC Cincinnati come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 90' Time for substitution for FC Cincinnati. Kekuta Manneh is replaced by Corben Bone.
- The final whistle goes. A composed, disciplined performance from FC Cincinnati to claim maximum points.
