Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Red Bull Arena. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 10' FC Dallas 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.
- 15' FC Dallas started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 15.
- 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Santiago Moreno, as he is very good at scoring at Red Bull Arena with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 25' 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 Juan Mina suffering a number of foals already.
- 30' New York Red Bulls is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 35' It’s high time Michael Bradley made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 40' FC Dallas looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker scoring 0 goals.
- 45' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ran Binyamin made 281 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 50' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 55' 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.
- 60' 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.
- 65' It looks surprising FC Dallas does not make any changes. Nolan Norris has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 70' 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.
- 75' It looks like no one’s ball. FC Dallas is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 80' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 85' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. New York Red Bulls needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 90' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Dallas that had 281 games and scored 411 goals.
- The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
