Events

Match Events

  • 0' Three points are at stake. Orlando City SC host Chicago Fire FC — let the battle begin!
  • 5' What a strike from Tesho Akindele! The score is 1-0.
  • 10' The travelling Chicago Fire FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 15' The 33-year-old Oriol Rosell has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 17' The USA Kyle Smith breaks the deadlock on 17 minutes. 2-0!
  • 22' Francisco Calvo has been relatively quiet despite scoring 13 goals in his last 7 appearances.
  • 27' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 32' Chicago Fire FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 32.
  • 37' The supporters are chanting for Shane O'Neill. He replaces Robin Jansson on 37 minute.
  • 40' Johan Kappelhof catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 40.
  • 45' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Nani.
  • 46' The crowd applauds Nicolas Gaitan as he leaves the pitch. Fabian Herbers steps in for Chicago Fire SC.
  • 51' 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 Dax McCarty suffering a number of foals already.
  • 55' The Orlando City SC manager makes a substitution. Will Johnson departs to be replaced by Sacha Kljestan.

  • 67' Przemyslaw Frankowski has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 67 minutes.
  • 70' Chicago Fire SC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Nemanja Nikolics is hanging C.J. Sapong on the field on 70 minute.
  • 74' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Benji Michel makes it 3-3.
  • 76' Chicago Fire SC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 76.
  • 78' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Francisco Calvo on 78 minutes.
  • 81' Orlando City SC ring the changes. Ruan has done his job and it is now time for Christopher Mueller to step up.
  • 83' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Mauricio Pereyra on 83 minutes.
  • 87' Przemyslaw Frankowski puts Chicago Fire SC on the lead.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 2-5.
