Events

Match Events

  • 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — New York City FC and New York Red Bulls get this one started.
  • 5' John Tolkin, a USA , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 10' It looks surprising New York Red Bulls does not make any changes. Thomas Edwards has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 13' John Tolkin is having his name booked by the referee on 13.
  • 18' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 23' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. New York City FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 28' 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 Maxi Moralez suffering a number of foals already.
  • 33' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 38' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 43' What composure from Omir Fernandez! The USA international strokes it home. 0-1.
  • 44' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Omir Fernandez makes no mistake. 0-2!
  • 46' The New York City FC bench stirs into life. Talles Magno is withdrawn and Santiago Rodriguez gets his opportunity.
  • 51' Alexander Callens needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 23 Yellow cards this season.
  • 56' Andres Reyes has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 38 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 57' New York Red Bulls manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Andres Reyes is hanging Thomas Edwards on the field on 57 minute.
  • 62' James Sands is having his name booked by the referee on 62.
  • 64' Wikelman Carmona gets the nod from New York Red Bulls. He replaces Omir Fernandez and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 68' Gudmundur Thorarinsson makes way for Heber at the 68 minute mark. A tactical switch from New York City FC.
  • 73' New York City FC are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against New York Red Bulls's shape.
  • 75' A moment of madness from Valentin Castellanos on 75 minutes earns him a Yellow card. New York City FC will be frustrated.
  • 80' Alfredo Morales is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for New York Red Bulls so far.
  • 85' It’s a booking for New York Red Bulls player. Kyle Duncan gets a Yellow card.
  • 90' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for New York Red Bulls players.
