Events

Match Events

0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Orlando City SC is hosting Columbus Crew SC for another epic battle.
5' Oriol Rosell has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 34 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
10' It’s high time James O'Connor made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
15' Orlando City SC is showing some good football. However, Orlando City SC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
20' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Orlando City SC and Columbus Crew SC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
25' Over 25 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
30' The 35-year-old Gyasi Zardes has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
35' Orlando City SC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Columbus Crew SC backline.
40' Mohamed El Mounir is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Orlando City SC so far.
45' 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.
50' Columbus Crew SC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
55' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Yoshimar Yotun made 18 appearances and scored 10 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
60' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
65' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
70' 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 Lamine Sane suffering a number of foals already.
75' Columbus Crew SC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
80' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Gregg Berhalter will be considering his options from the bench.
85' The energy levels are beginning to show. Gregg Berhalter might look to freshen things up shortly.
90' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Columbus Crew SC that had 303 games and scored 461 goals.
Orlando City SC celebrates a vital win. Three points that could prove pivotal come season's end.
