- 5' Philadelphia Union is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 10' 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.
- 15' The travelling Philadelphia Union supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 20' Eric Miller needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 25' Diego Chara was booked on 25.

- 32' Quinn Sullivan is having his name booked by the referee on 32.
- 37' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 37 minutes.
- 40' That looks like a foul for a card for Jack Elliott.
- 45' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
