Events

Match Events

  • 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Orlando City SC to score. At the same time, San Diego FC does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
  • 5' Both keepers have barely been tested. Orlando City SC and San Diego FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 10' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 15' USA international Kieran Sargeant has been a key figure this campaign — 1 goals and 1 assists in the Array this season.
  • 20' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Orlando City SC that had 291 games and scored 439 goals.
  • 25' Over 25 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 28' What a moment for Antoine Griezmann! That strike on 28 puts his side firmly in control.
  • 33' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. San Diego FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 38' named a 4-4-2 earlier, and opted for a 4-3-3 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 43' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 48' San Diego FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 48.
  • 51' Martin Ojeda gets the nod from Orlando City SC. He replaces Bernardo Rhein and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 56' It looks surprising Orlando City SC does not make any changes. Ivan Angulo has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 61' Elias Achouri is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Orlando City SC tonight.
  • 62' A change in the San Diego FC ranks — Alejandro Alvarado Jr exits the field as Amahl Pellegrino enters on 62.
  • 63' Christopher McVey is ready to make an impact after coming on for Ian Murphy at the 63 minute mark.
  • 66' Orlando City SC ring the changes. Daryl Dike has done his job and it is now time for Tyrese Spicer to step up.
  • 71' Orlando City SC looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Antoine Griezmann scoring 1 goals.
  • 75' Orlando City SC make a change. Eduard Atuesta trudges off to be replaced by Luis Aquino on 75 minutes.
  • 79' Another substitution for San Diego FC to replace Onni Valakari by David Vazquez on 79 minute.
  • 84' That is a card for San Diego FC. David Vazquez will be fuming at that decision.
  • 85' The referee shows Orlando City SC player a card on 85.
  • 90' Kieran Sargeant has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 90.
  • 90' San Diego FC make a change. Gabriel Pirani trudges off to be replaced by Bryce Duke on 90 minutes.
  • 1-0 the final result. San Diego FC will be bitterly disappointed.
