Events

Match Events

  • 0' San Jose Earthquakes have kicked off against FC Dallas. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
  • 5' Both keepers have barely been tested. San Jose Earthquakes and FC Dallas are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 10' FC Dallas looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Petar Musa scoring 1 goals.
  • 15' FC Dallas come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 20' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 25' Over 25 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 30' The energy levels are beginning to show. Óscar Pareja might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 35' FC Dallas fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 40' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 45' Tesho Akindele, a Canada , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 50' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Santiago Mosquera made 289 appearances and scored 19 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 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 Luis Felipe suffering a number of foals already.
  • 60' San Jose Earthquakes have won 430 goals from 287 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 65' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 70' FC Dallas has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
  • 75' Jahmir Hyka is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for FC Dallas tonight.
  • 80' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Dallas that had 289 games and scored 426 goals.
  • 85' Marcos Pedroso has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 90' San Jose Earthquakes is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • Full Time. San Jose Earthquakes beats FC Dallas
