Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: San Diego FC gets underway.
- 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Vancouver Whitecaps FC that had 276 games and scored 424 goals.
- 10' Pedro Soma has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 15 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
- 15' San Diego 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.
- 20' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Vancouver Whitecaps FC winning 100% of all matches.
- 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' Goal! Brian White scores his 88 goal in 283 matches.
- 35' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Amahl Pellegrino made 61 appearances and scored 18 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 40' San Diego FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 45' Brian White with the second goal in the match!
- 50' It’s gonna be a card for Brian White.
- 53' Goal! David Vazquez scores his 3 goal in 286 matches.
- 54' San Diego FC player sees a card in front of him.
- 59' San Diego FC is showing some good football. However, San Diego FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 63' A meaty challenge results in booking for Jeevan Badwal on 63.
- 67' GOAL! Bruno Caicedo scores on 67. Assisted by Drew Conner
- 72' It’s a booking for San Diego FC player. Luca Bombino gets a card.
- 75' Goal! Ralph Priso-Mbongue scores his 4 goal in 280 matches.
- 76' GOAL! Ralph Priso-Mbongue scores on 76.
- 81' 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 Kieran Sargeant suffering a number of foals already.
- 86' Vancouver Whitecaps FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 86.
- 87' San Diego FC player sees a card in front of him.
- Full Time. Vancouver Whitecaps FC beats San Diego FC
