  • 10' 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.
  • 15' The 30-year-old Michael Amir Murillo has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 20' Ignacio Piatti, a Argentina , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 25' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 30' Alejandro Silva has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 33 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 35' Sean Davis has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 40' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His New York Red Bulls side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 45' United States international Luis Robles has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 50' New York Red Bulls currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 55' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?

  • 90' 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.
