Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Red Bull Arena. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' With 1 assists to his name this season, Osaze Urhoghide is clearly more than just a goal scorer for New York Red Bulls.
- 10' New York Red Bulls started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 10.
- 15' The 28-year-old Petar Musa has been sensational this season — 6 goals and 2 assists is a remarkable return.
- 20' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering New York Red Bulls that had 283 games and scored 418 goals.
- 25' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 30' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both New York Red Bulls and FC Dallas are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
- 35' named a 4-3-3 earlier, and opted for a 3-4-3 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
- 40' It is a cagey affair so far. New York Red Bulls in their 4-3-3 trying to find a way past FC Dallas's compact 3-4-3.
- 45' Herman Johansson is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for FC Dallas tonight.
- 50' The home supporters are growing impatient. New York Red Bulls must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 55' FC Dallas come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 60' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 65' It’s high time Eric Quill made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 70' 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.
- 75' 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 Ronald Donkor suffering a number of foals already.
- 80' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Santiago Moreno made 288 appearances and scored 24 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 85' A quiet spell here at Red Bull Arena. FC Dallas seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 90' New York Red Bulls 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.
- will have plenty to reflect on. were simply the better side today.
