  • 0' What a night it is going to be! Orlando City SC welcome Nashville SC for this crunch clash at Exploria Stadium.
  • 4' What composure from Daryl Dike! The USA international strokes it home. 1-0.
  • 9' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 14' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.

  • 28' A meaty challenge results in booking for Derrick Jones on 28.
  • 29' Poor challenge from Anibal Godoy. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
  • 34' 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 Anibal Godoy suffering a number of foals already.
  • 37' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Dax McCarty.

  • 69' A change in the Nashville SC ranks — Randall Leal exits the field as Handwalla Bwana enters on 69.
  • 71' Benji Michel gets the nod from Orlando City SC. He replaces Christopher Mueller and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 72' Junior Urso makes way for Jhegson Mendez at the 72 minute mark. A tactical switch from Orlando City SC.

  • 88' Hany Mukhtar doubles the advantage! 2-2 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
