Events
Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for New York Red Bulls to score. At the same time, Orlando City SC does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 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.
- 10' Orlando City SC 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' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 20' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 24' Kamal Miller has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 24.
- 29' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 34' New York Red Bulls are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 36' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Junior Urso.
- 41' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 46' named a earlier, and opted for a in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
- 51' Alex De John, a United States , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 56' The Portugal Nani breaks the deadlock on 56 minutes. 0-1!
- 61' 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.
- 62' Fresh legs for New York Red Bulls! Omir Fernandez comes on to replace Caden Clark.
- 67' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Orlando City SC that had 290 games and scored 438 goals.
- 70' Samuel Tetteh is ready to make an impact after coming on for Tom Barlow at the 70 minute mark.
- 75' Brazil international Junior Urso has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 78' Another substitution for Orlando City SC to replace Christopher Mueller by Rodrigo Schlegel on 78 minute.
- 83' Daryl Dike has been relatively quiet despite scoring 43 goals in his last 290 appearances.
- 88' 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 Kyle Duncan suffering a number of foals already.
- 90' A moment of madness from Florian Valot on 90 minutes earns him a Yellow card. New York Red Bulls will be frustrated.
- 90' Alex De John is replacing Joey DeZart for the Orlando City SC side.
- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 1-1 draw is a fair result on the day.
