Events

Match Events

  • 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Philadelphia Union and D.C. United SC is underway.
  • 5' Kacper Przybylko has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 5 minutes.
  • 10' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 15' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ray Gaddis made 305 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 16' A stunning finish from Brenden Aaronson — that came from absolutely nowhere!
  • 21' Poor challenge from Paul Arriola. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
  • 26' The energy levels are beginning to show. Jim Curtin might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 31' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering D.C. United SC that had 297 games and scored 398 goals.
  • 36' Assisted by Kacper Przybylko with the perfectly-timed delivery and Ilsinho makes no mistake. 3-0!
  • 41' Mark McKenzie has been relatively quiet despite scoring 6 goals in his last 305 appearances.
  • 46' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 51' The travelling D.C. United SC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 56' The deadlock is broken! Luciano Acosta gets on the scoresheet on 56 minutes.
  • 61' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Ben Olsen will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 64' Quincy Amarikwa has so much to prove this time. He replaces Ola Kamara on 64 minute.
  • 69' Another change for D.C. United SC made on 69 minute. Paul Arriola leaves to be changed by Ema Boateng.
  • 70' Philadelphia Union manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Marco Fabian is hanging Ilsinho on the field on 70 minute.
  • 73' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Alejandro Bedoya.
  • 74' It is a substitution in Philadelphia Union team. Brenden Aaronson is replaced by Fafa Picault on 74 minute.
  • 79' Lucas Rodriguez gets the nod from D.C. United SC. He replaces Felipe Martins and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 84' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 84 minutes.
  • 87' Warren Creavalle has so much to prove this time. He replaces Jamiro on 87 minute.
  • 90' A moment of madness from Leonardo Jara on 90 minutes earns him a Yellow card. D.C. United SC will be frustrated.
  • The points are shared — Philadelphia Union 3-1 D.C. United SC. Honours even.
