Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Gillette Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' It looks like no one’s ball. Philadelphia Union is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Philadelphia Union that had 286 games and scored 477 goals.
- 15' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. New England Revolution needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 20' 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.
- 25' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 30' Philadelphia Union looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker scoring 0 goals.
- 35' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Philadelphia Union winning 0% of all matches.
- 40' New England Revolution 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.
- 45' It’s high time Marko Mitrovic made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 50' The travelling Philadelphia Union supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 55' Philadelphia Union is showing some good football. However, Philadelphia Union are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 60' Philadelphia Union is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 65' 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 Olwethu Makhanya suffering a number of foals already.
- 70' Supporters expect more eagerness from Andre Blake, as he is very good at scoring at Gillette Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 75' It looks surprising New England Revolution does not make any changes. Will Sands has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 80' Milan Iloski has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 14 appearances with only 4 goals this season.
- 85' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 90' New England Revolution started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 90.
- The final score is 0-0.
