  • 5' The travelling Seattle Sounders FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 10' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

  • 15' Philadelphia Union are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Seattle Sounders FC backline.
  • 20' Seattle Sounders FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.

  • 30' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Philadelphia Union that had 289 games and scored 484 goals.
  • 35' Supporters expect more eagerness from Alejandro Bedoya, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.

  • 57' Ilsinho gets the nod from Philadelphia Union. He replaces Sergio Santos and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 62' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 67' Philadelphia Union is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 71' A change in the Seattle Sounders FC ranks — Nouhou Tolo exits the field as Kelvin Leerdam enters on 71.
