  • 10' William Yarbrough has been relatively quiet despite scoring 1 goals in his last 280 appearances.
  • 15' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Seattle Sounders FC that had 293 games and scored 457 goals.

  • 45' What a moment for Jordan Morris! That strike on 45 puts his side firmly in control.
  • 50' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
