Events

Match Events

0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Portland Timbers to score. At the same time, New York City FC does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
5' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
10' Over 10 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
15' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
20' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
25' 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.
30' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jeff Attinella made 291 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
35' Yangel Herrera is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Portland Timbers tonight.
40' New York City FC have won 459 goals from 289 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
45' Fanendo Adi is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for New York City FC so far.
50' David Villa has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
55' Alexander Ring, a Finland , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
60' The home supporters are growing impatient. Portland Timbers must find a spark to ignite this game.
65' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
70' Both keepers have barely been tested. Portland Timbers and New York City FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
75' It looks like no one’s ball. New York City FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
80' 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.
85' Larrys Mabiala has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 18 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
90' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering New York City FC that had 289 games and scored 459 goals.
Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 3-0.
