Events

Match Events

0' KICK OFF: Sporting Kansas City gets underway.
5' The travelling Minnesota United FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
9' GOAL! Daniel Rosero fires home to make it 1-0!
14' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Sporting Kansas City side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
19' Luis Amarilla has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
21' A meaty challenge results in booking for Daniel Rosero on 21.
22' The Hungary Daniel Salloi breaks the deadlock on 22 minutes. 2-0!
23' What a moment for Daniel Salloi! That strike on 23 puts his side firmly in control.
28' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 28 minutes.
33' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
36' That is a Yellow card for Minnesota United FC. Miguel Tapias will be fuming at that decision.
41' Minnesota United FC have won 449 goals from 301 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
46' Franco Fragapane has so much to prove this time. He replaces Brent Kallman on 46 minute.
51' USA international Jake Davis has been a key figure this campaign — 1 goals and 1 assists in the Array this season.
56' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Minnesota United FC that had 301 games and scored 449 goals.
61' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
62' Gadi Kinda is ready to make an impact after coming on for Nemanja Radoja at the 62 minute mark.
65' Another substitution for Minnesota United FC to replace Hassani Dotson by Mender Garcia on 65 minute.
66' Controversy at the stadium! Michael Boxall argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
69' Kendall McIntosh is ready to make an impact after coming on for Tim Melia at the 69 minute mark.
74' named a 4-3-3 earlier, and opted for a 3-5-2 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
79' Sporting Kansas City currently sit 29 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
81' Time for substitution for Minnesota United FC. Kemar Lawrence is replaced by Zarek Valentin.
84' The Israel Gadi Kinda breaks the deadlock on 84 minutes. 4-0!
86' The supporters are chanting for Graham Zusi. He replaces Johnny Russell on 86 minute.
Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Sporting Kansas City players.
