Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: Toronto FC gets underway.
  • 5' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
  • 10' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Toronto FC and Charlotte FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 15' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 20' Charlotte FC is showing some good football. However, Charlotte FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 25' 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 Shane O'Neill suffering a number of foals already.
  • 26' Lorenzo Insigne has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 26.
  • 31' Charlotte FC looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Wilfried Zaha scoring 1 goals.
  • 36' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Toronto FC and Charlotte FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
  • 41' Andrew Privett has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 46' Another change for Toronto FC made on 46 minute. Kevin Long leaves to be changed by Sigurd Rosted.
  • 51' Both keepers have barely been tested. Toronto FC and Charlotte FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 56' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 60' It’s a booking for Charlotte FC player. Kerwin Vargas gets a card.
  • 61' Toronto FC make a change. Kobe Franklin trudges off to be replaced by Prince-Osei Owusu on 61 minutes.
  • 62' Toronto FC make a change. Alonso Coello Camarero trudges off to be replaced by Matthew Longstaff on 62 minutes.
  • 64' Sigurd Rosted picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 69' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 71' Enzo Copetti makes way for Patrick Agyemang at the 71 minute mark. A tactical switch from Charlotte FC.
  • 72' Time for substitution for Charlotte FC. Iuri Tavares is replaced by Scott Arfield.
  • 77' Toronto FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 80' Lorenzo Insigne makes no mistake. The score reads 1-0 and Toronto FC are in front.
  • 82' A meaty challenge results in booking for Scott Arfield on 82.
  • 82' Charlotte FC ring the changes. Kerwin Vargas has done his job and it is now time for Nimfasha Berchimas to step up.
  • 86' Poor challenge from Brecht Dejaegere. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
  • 87' Another change for Toronto FC made on 87 minute. Lorenzo Insigne leaves to be changed by Jahkeele Marshall-Rutty.
  • 90' The referee shows Charlotte FC player a card on 90.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 1-0.
