Events

Match Events

0' Three points are at stake. New York Red Bulls host Columbus Crew SC — let the battle begin!
5' New York Red Bulls are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Columbus Crew SC backline.
7' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Julian Hall makes it 1-0.
12' It looks like no one’s ball. New York Red Bulls is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
17' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
22' Matthew Dos Santos has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 16 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
27' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His New York Red Bulls side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
32' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
37' Andre Gomes, a Portugal , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
42' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
47' Over 47 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
52' New York Red Bulls is showing some good football. However, New York Red Bulls are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
57' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with New York Red Bulls winning 100% of all matches.
62' Sekou Bangoura has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 1 goals to his name this season.
67' Hugo Picard is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Columbus Crew SC so far.
72' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both New York Red Bulls and Columbus Crew SC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
77' 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.
82' The 26-year-old Sean Zawadzki has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
87' 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 Patrick Schulte suffering a number of foals already.
Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 1-0.
