Events

Match Events

  • 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Philadelphia Union and New York Red Bulls get this one started.
  • 5' It looks surprising Philadelphia Union does not make any changes. Andre Blake has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 6' What a strike from Josh Sims! The score is 0-1.
  • 11' Philadelphia Union are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against New York Red Bulls's shape.
  • 16' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 16 minutes.
  • 21' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Philadelphia Union and New York Red Bulls are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 24' Magnificent from Tim Parker! That is 13 goals in 302 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 29' The New York Red Bulls manager makes a substitution. Josh Sims departs to be replaced by Alex Muyl.
  • 30' Against the run of play, Alejandro Bedoya has scored! This game has turned on its head.
  • 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.
  • 36' A moment of madness from Jamiro on 36 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Philadelphia Union will be frustrated.
  • 41' Both keepers have barely been tested. Philadelphia Union and New York Red Bulls are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 46' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering New York Red Bulls that had 302 games and scored 443 goals.
  • 49' Tom Barlow makes no mistake. The score reads 1-3 and New York Red Bulls are in front.
  • 52' A stunning finish from Jack Elliott — that came from absolutely nowhere!
  • 57' Over 57 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 58' Alejandro Bedoya catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 58.
  • 62' Ilsinho gets the nod from Philadelphia Union. He replaces Andrew Wooten and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 67' Sergio Santos has been relatively quiet despite scoring 34 goals in his last 305 appearances.
  • 70' The New York Red Bulls bench stirs into life. Alejandro Romero Gamarra is withdrawn and Sean Davis gets his opportunity.
  • 72' Philadelphia Union make a change. Brenden Aaronson trudges off to be replaced by Fafa Picault on 72 minutes.
  • 77' 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.
  • 78' The deadlock is broken! Fafa Picault gets on the scoresheet on 78 minutes.
  • 83' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. New York Red Bulls needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 84' Tom Barlow makes way for Bradley Wright-Phillips at the 84 minute mark. A tactical switch from New York Red Bulls.
  • 89' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
