Events
Match Events
- 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and Orlando City SC launch into their encounter with Montreal Impact FC.
- 5' 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 Daniel Lovitz suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' Zakaria Diallo has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 14' What a moment for Orji Okwonkwo! That strike on 14 puts his side firmly in control.
- 15' Ignacio Piatti adds to his 0 season tally! Montreal Impact FC lead 0-2 — and this changes everything.
- 16' That is a Yellow card for Orlando City SC. Brian Rowe will be fuming at that decision.
- 21' The Orlando City SC bench stirs into life. Will Johnson is withdrawn and Cristian Higuita gets his opportunity.
- 23' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Shane O'Neill.
- 28' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. James O'Connor will be considering his options from the bench.
- 32' The referee shows Montreal Impact FC player a Yellow card on 32.
- 37' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 42' With 0 assists to his name this season, Josue Colman is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Orlando City SC.
- 47' 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.
- 52' Montreal Impact FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 55' Poor challenge from Danny Acosta. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 57' Orji Okwonkwo has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 57.

- 74' Harry Novillo is ready to make an impact after coming on for Orji Okwonkwo at the 74 minute mark.

- 80' Brilliant from the ! Ignacio Piatti makes it 0-3 with a superb finish on 80.
- 83' The crowd applauds Victor Cabrera as he leaves the pitch. Mathieu Choiniere steps in for Montreal Impact FC.
