Events
Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Orlando City SC to score. At the same time, Philadelphia Union does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 5' The travelling Philadelphia Union supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 10' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 15' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Orlando City SC that had 283 games and scored 425 goals.
- 17' Andrew Rick is having his name booked by the referee on 17.
- 18' What a strike from Martin Ojeda! The score is 1-0.
- 23' It looks surprising Orlando City SC does not make any changes. Bruno Damiani has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 28' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 33' 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.
- 38' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Orlando City SC winning 100% of all matches.
- 43' Orlando City SC looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Martin Ojeda scoring 1 goals.
- 48' 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 Olwethu Makhanya suffering a number of foals already.
- 53' Orlando City SC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 58' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Orlando City SC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 63' Philadelphia Union is showing some good football. However, Philadelphia Union are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 68' Tiago needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 73' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 78' It’s high time Óscar Pareja made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 83' Philadelphia Union 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.
- 88' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- Full Time. Orlando City SC beats Philadelphia Union
