Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Vancouver Whitecaps FC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' Seattle Sounders FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 10' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Seattle Sounders FC and Vancouver Whitecaps FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 15' Vancouver Whitecaps FC has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 2 of the last 2 meetings.
  • 20' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 25' Chad Marshall has been relatively quiet despite scoring 8 goals in his last 305 appearances.
  • 30' Efrain Juarez has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 34 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 35' Seattle Sounders 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.
  • 40' Vancouver Whitecaps FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 45' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 50' The home supporters are growing impatient. Seattle Sounders FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 55' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Seattle Sounders FC that had 305 games and scored 477 goals.
  • 60' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 65' With 1 assists to his name this season, Nouhou Tolo is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Vancouver Whitecaps FC.
  • 70' Both keepers have barely been tested. Seattle Sounders FC and Vancouver Whitecaps FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 75' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 80' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 85' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 90' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Brian Schmetzer will be considering his options from the bench.
  • That’s it! Another goalless match for Seattle Sounders FC and Vancouver Whitecaps FC (для сухой ничьи).
