Events
Match Events
- 0' The wait is over. Austin FC get us underway at Citypark.
- 5' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with Austin FC winning 50% of all matches.
- 10' It looks like no one’s ball. St. Louis City is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 15' It’s high time Yoann Damet made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 20' The travelling Austin FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 25' St. Louis City is showing some good football. However, St. Louis City are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 30' Mikkel Desler is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Austin FC so far.
- 35' Brad Stuver has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 40' Guilherme Biro doubles the advantage! 1-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 45' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Rafael Santos suffering a number of foals already.
- 50' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 55' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 57' Fallou Fall makes no mistake. The score reads 2-0 and St. Louis City are in front.
- 62' St. Louis City are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Austin FC's shape.
- 67' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 72' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 77' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 77 minutes.
- 80' Nicolas Dubersarsky was booked on 80.
- 85' Chris Durkin is having his name booked by the referee on 85.
- 90' What a strike from Daniel Edelman! The score is 3-0.
- St. Louis City celebrates a vital win. Three points that could prove pivotal come season's end.
