- 0' And we are off! St. Louis City vs Los Angeles Galaxy — let the football do the talking.
- 5' 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 Marcel Hartel suffering a number of foals already.
