Events

Match Events

  • 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Portland Timbers and Philadelphia Union get this one started.
  • 5' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
  • 10' Philadelphia Union seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 15' 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.
  • 20' Over 20 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 25' Diego Chara has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 25.
  • 28' Against the run of play, Julian Carranza has scored! This game has turned on its head.
  • 32' Quinn Sullivan has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 32.
  • 37' Philadelphia Union come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 40' The referee calls foul for Jack Elliott. He receives a card.
  • 45' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Phil Neville will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 50' With 0 assists to his name this season, Eryk Williamson is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Portland Timbers.
  • 55' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for David Ayala suffering a number of foals already.
  • 58' Quinn Sullivan does the damage! The net is bulging and Philadelphia Union surge ahead!
  • 63' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 65' Diego Chara makes way for Felipe Mora at the 65 minute mark. A tactical switch from Portland Timbers.
  • 67' Julian Carranza with the second goal in the match!
  • 72' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 75' A change in the Portland Timbers ranks — Juan Mosquera exits the field as Dairon Asprilla enters on 75.
  • 80' Jonathan Rodriguez makes no mistake. The score reads 1-3 and Portland Timbers are in front.
  • 84' It is a substitution in Philadelphia Union team. Markus Anderson is replaced by Chris Donovan on 84 minute.
  • 88' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Oliver Semmle.
  • 90' It’s a booking for Philadelphia Union player. Mikkel Uhre gets a card.
