  • 5' Anibal Godoy has been relatively quiet despite scoring 4 goals in his last 8 appearances.
  • 10' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 15' It is a cagey affair so far. Seattle Sounders FC in their 4-2-3-1 trying to find a way past San Diego FC's compact 4-3-3.
  • 18' A goal from the Denmark international Marcus Ingvartsen! He fires home on 18 to make it 0-1!
  • 23' 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.
  • 28' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Seattle Sounders FC and San Diego FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 33' The energy levels are beginning to show. Brian Schmetzer might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 38' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.

  • 48' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Kalani Kossa-Rienzi made 285 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 51' It’s a booking for Seattle Sounders FC player. Jesus Ferreira gets a card.
  • 56' It’s gonna be a card for Snyder Brunell.
  • 57' Cristian Roldan picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.

  • 67' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 72' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 72 minutes.
  • 75' Alexander Mighten has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 75.

  • 80' Danny Musovski doubles the advantage! 1-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 85' San Diego FC have won 83 goals from 49 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
