Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: FC Dallas gets underway.
  • 5' Real Salt Lake are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined FC Dallas backline.
  • 10' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 11' Brilliant from the ! Brayan Vera makes it 1-0 with a superb finish on 11.
  • 16' The 27-year-old Marco Farfan has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 21' It looks surprising Real Salt Lake does not make any changes. Nkosi Burgess has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 24' Assisted by Gavin Beavers with the perfectly-timed delivery and Anderson Julio makes no mistake. 2-0!
  • 29' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Andrew Brody made 280 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 34' Real Salt Lake started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 34.
  • 39' Spain international Illarramendi has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 44' 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 Petar Musa suffering a number of foals already.
  • 45' Time for substitution for FC Dallas. Show is replaced by Alan Velasco.
  • 46' Jesus Ferreira makes no mistake. The score reads 2-1 and FC Dallas are in front.
  • 46' Another change for FC Dallas made on 46 minute. Sam Junqua leaves to be changed by Ruan.
  • 51' 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.
  • 56' A quiet spell here at America First Field. Real Salt Lake seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 57' The supporters are chanting for Diego Luna. He replaces Lachlan Brook on 57 minute.
  • 62' What a moment for Anderson Julio! That strike on 62 puts his side firmly in control.
  • 67' Supporters expect more eagerness from Sam Junqua, as he is very good at scoring at America First Field with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 71' Nkosi Burgess makes way for Logan Farrington at the 71 minute mark. A tactical switch from FC Dallas.
  • 76' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 77' It is a substitution in Real Salt Lake team. Dominik Marczuk is replaced by Bode Davis on 77 minute.
  • 81' Another substitution for FC Dallas to replace Jesus Ferreira by Bernard Kamungo on 81 minute.
  • 86' It looks like no one’s ball. FC Dallas is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 88' Magnificent from Alan Velasco! That is 16 goals in 161 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 90' Matt Crooks was booked on 90.
