Events

Match Events

0' Temperatures are rising at Lumen Field as Seattle Sounders FC face off against Los Angeles Galaxy in what promises to be a fascinating contest.
5' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Seattle Sounders FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
10' Los Angeles Galaxy come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
12' It’s gonna be a card for Justin Haak.
17' With 0 assists to his name this season, J.T. Marcinkowski is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Los Angeles Galaxy.
22' Japan international Miki Yamane has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
23' A stunning finish from Gabriel Pec — that came from absolutely nowhere!
28' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
33' Seattle Sounders FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 33.
38' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Greg Vanney will be considering his options from the bench.
43' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
44' Seattle Sounders FC receives a card for a hard tackle on 44.
45' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Miki Yamane on 45 minutes.
50' It looks like no one’s ball. Los Angeles Galaxy is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
55' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
60' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 60 minutes.

80' The home supporters are growing impatient. Seattle Sounders FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
85' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

89' Los Angeles Galaxy receives a card for a hard tackle on 89.
It finishes all square. Seattle Sounders FC and Los Angeles Galaxy share the spoils 0-2.
