Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Montreal Impact FC gets underway.
- 5' Ismael Kone has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 7' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Alexander Callens makes it 1-0.
- 12' New York City FC 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.
- 17' 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 Sebastian Breza suffering a number of foals already.
- 20' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Santiago Rodriguez makes no mistake. 2-0!
- 22' A moment of madness from Alfredo Morales on 22 minutes earns him a Yellow card. New York City FC will be frustrated.
- 27' New York City FC are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Montreal Impact FC's shape.
- 32' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His New York City FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 36' Matko Miljevic has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 36.
- 41' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 41 minutes.
- 46' Another change for Montreal Impact FC made on 46 minute. Lassi Lappalainen leaves to be changed by Robert Orri Thorkelsson.
- 51' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 52' Zachary Brault-Guillard does the damage! The net is bulging and Montreal Impact FC surge ahead!
- 57' Montreal Impact FC is showing some good football. However, Montreal Impact FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 62' named a earlier, and opted for a in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
- 64' Against the run of play, Talles Magno has scored! This game has turned on its head.
- 65' Another substitution for New York City FC to replace Keaton Parks by Nicolas Acevedo on 65 minute.
- 70' The Montreal Impact FC manager makes a substitution. Victor Wanyama departs to be replaced by Ismael Kone.
- 75' The 35-year-old Romell Quioto has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 80' Supporters expect more eagerness from Valentin Castellanos, as he is very good at scoring at Yankee Stadium with 24 goals in the last 11 games.
- 82' The supporters are chanting for Joaquin Torres. He replaces Matko Miljevic on 82 minute.
- 83' The deadlock is broken! Thiago gets on the scoresheet on 83 minutes.
- 84' Heber gets the nod from New York City FC. He replaces Maxi Moralez and will look to change the dynamic.
- 86' New York City FC ring the changes. Alfredo Morales has done his job and it is now time for Gedion Zelalem to step up.
- The final score is 4-1.
