Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Los Angeles FC gets underway.
- 5' 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 Luca Bombino suffering a number of foals already.
- 7' Goal! Marcus Ingvartsen scores his 39 goal in 316 matches.
- 12' Nkosi Burgess needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 15' David Vazquez is having his name booked by the referee on 15.
- 20' It’s high time Mikey Varas made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 25' 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.
- 30' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 35' Supporters expect more eagerness from Hugo Lloris, as he is very good at scoring at Snapdragon Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 40' The travelling Los Angeles FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 45' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 50' Los Angeles FC 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.
- 55' It looks surprising Los Angeles FC does not make any changes. Ryan Hollingshead has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 59' That looks like a foul for a card for Kenneth Nielsen.
- 64' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Los Angeles FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 69' Eddie Segura has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 14 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 71' GOAL! Marcus Ingvartsen scores on 71. Assisted by Anders Dreyer
- 73' The referee calls foul for Ian Pilcher. He receives a card.
- 78' San Diego FC receives a card for a hard tackle on 78.
- 82' What a strike from Denis Bouanga! The score is 2-1.
- 87' 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.
- 90' That looks like a foul for a card for Denis Bouanga.
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 2-2.
