Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Gillette Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' Alejandro Bedoya has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 34 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 7' Philadelphia Union player sees a card in front of him.
- 12' New England Revolution are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Philadelphia Union backline.
- 16' The deadlock is broken! Julian Carranza gets on the scoresheet on 16 minutes.
- 21' 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 Nathan Harriel suffering a number of foals already.
- 23' Philadelphia Union player sees a card in front of him.
- 24' That is a card for Philadelphia Union. Kai Wagner will be fuming at that decision.
- 25' Against the run of play, Gustavo Bou has scored! This game has turned on its head.
- 30' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both New England Revolution and Philadelphia Union are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 35' Tommy McNamara, a USA , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 40' It is a cagey affair so far. New England Revolution in their 4-2-3-1 trying to find a way past Philadelphia Union's compact 3-4-1-2.
- 42' Gustavo Bou doubles the advantage! 2-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 47' It looks surprising Philadelphia Union does not make any changes. Jack Elliott has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 52' New England Revolution are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 57' With 0 assists to his name this season, Mikkel Uhre is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Philadelphia Union.
- 62' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Shalrie Joseph will be considering his options from the bench.
- 67' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both New England Revolution and Philadelphia Union are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
- 72' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Philadelphia Union that had 305 games and scored 521 goals.
- 75' Jack McGlynn makes way for Leon Flach at the 75 minute mark. A tactical switch from Philadelphia Union.
- 80' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 85' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 90' The referee has no hesitation. Julian Carranza is booked for Philadelphia Union — card on 90.
- 90' The New England Revolution manager makes a substitution. Gustavo Bou departs to be replaced by Justin Rennicks.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Philadelphia Union.
