  • 10' Tommy Redding, a United States , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 15' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 20' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Orlando City SC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 25' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 30' It’s high time Jason Kreis made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 35' 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.
  • 40' New York Red Bulls are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 45' Over 45 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 50' New York Red Bulls is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 55' Orlando City SC are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against New York Red Bulls's shape.
  • 60' New York Red Bulls 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.

  • 75' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

  • 80' Vincent Bezecourt has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 85' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Orlando City SC that had 302 games and scored 466 goals.

  • Another three points for Orlando City SC.
