  • 21' Brandon Servania is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Charlotte FC tonight.
  • 26' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.

  • 36' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 41' Poor challenge from Matt Hedges. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
  • 44' Brilliant from the ! Michael Bradley makes it 2-0 with a superb finish on 44.
  • 49' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 51' The deadlock is broken! Ben Bender gets on the scoresheet on 51 minutes.
  • 56' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jahkeele Marshall-Rutty made 280 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 61' Karol Swiderski is ready to make an impact after coming on for Nuno Santos at the 61 minute mark.
  • 66' The 26-year-old George Marks has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.

  • 77' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
