Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds will turn into a battlefield for San Jose Earthquakes and Los Angeles Galaxy.
  • 5' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 10' San Jose Earthquakes is showing some good football. However, San Jose Earthquakes are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 15' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Los Angeles Galaxy that had 286 games and scored 484 goals.
  • 20' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 20 minutes.
  • 25' Los Angeles Galaxy come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 30' Danny Hoesen needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 35' It looks surprising Los Angeles Galaxy does not make any changes. Fatai Alashe has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 40' Los Angeles Galaxy looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Joseph Paintsil scoring 2 goals.
  • 45' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 50' Joao Pedro has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 55' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Romain Alessandrini made 286 appearances and scored 21 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 60' Baggio Husidic has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 65' San Jose Earthquakes is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 70' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 75' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Los Angeles Galaxy needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 80' 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 Vako Qazaishvili suffering a number of foals already.
  • 85' David Romney, a United States , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 90' Bradford Jamieson IV is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Los Angeles Galaxy so far.
  • It finishes all square. San Jose Earthquakes and Los Angeles Galaxy share the spoils 3-3.
