- 5' With 0 assists to his name this season, Henry Kessler is clearly more than just a goal scorer for New England Revolution.
- 10' It looks surprising New England Revolution does not make any changes. Sean Johnson has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 15' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 20' 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 Anton Tinnerholm suffering a number of foals already.
- 22' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Alexander Ring.
- 27' New York City FC looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker James Sands scoring 1 goals.
- 32' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 37' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 37 minutes.
- 42' The travelling New York City FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.

- 64' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Gudmundur THorarinsson on 64 minutes.
- 65' New York City FC ring the changes. Joseph Scally has done his job and it is now time for Anton Tinnerholm to step up.
- 66' New England Revolution make a change. Teal Bunbury trudges off to be replaced by Kekuta Manneh on 66 minutes.
- 67' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Alexander Callens.
- 72' The energy levels are beginning to show. Ronny Deila might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 74' The New York City FC bench stirs into life. Nicolas Acevedo is withdrawn and Ismael Tajouri gets his opportunity.
- 78' It is a substitution in New England Revolution team. Tajon Buchanan is replaced by Cristian Penilla on 78 minute.
- 80' A moment of madness from Valentin Castellanos on 80 minutes earns him a Yellow card. New York City FC will be frustrated.
