Match Events

0' The wait is over. Columbus Crew SC get us underway at Red Bull Arena.
5' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with New York Red Bulls winning 100% of all matches.
7' Julian Hall is having a superb {COMPETITION} campaign — that is 6 goals this season for the .
12' The travelling Columbus Crew SC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
17' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His New York Red Bulls side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
22' New York Red Bulls started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 22.
27' New York Red Bulls are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Columbus Crew SC backline.
32' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 32 minutes.
37' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
42' 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.
47' Supporters expect more eagerness from Taha Habroune, as he is very good at scoring at Red Bull Arena with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
52' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
57' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
62' With 6 assists to his name this season, Ronald Donkor is clearly more than just a goal scorer for New York Red Bulls.
67' 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 Sekou Bangoura suffering a number of foals already.
72' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
77' It is a cagey affair so far. New York Red Bulls in their 4-3-3 trying to find a way past Columbus Crew SC's compact 4-4-2.
82' 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.
87' Columbus Crew SC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 1-0.
