0' It’s Showtime! The match between Toronto FC and New York City FC is underway.
5' Sebastien Ibeagha, a USA , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
10' New York City FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
15' Maxi Moralez has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 22 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
20' The 35-year-old Brad Stuver has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
25' Alex Bono has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
30' 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 Nick Hagglund suffering a number of foals already.
35' New York City FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
40' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
45' It’s high time Greg Vanney made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
50' Anton Tinnerholm has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
55' Michael Bradley is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Toronto FC tonight.
60' New York City FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 60.
65' New York City FC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
70' New York City FC looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Nicolas Fernandez Marcau scoring 2 goals.
75' Gregory van der Wiel is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Toronto FC so far.
80' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
85' It looks surprising New York City FC does not make any changes. Justin Morrow has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
90' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Toronto FC and New York City FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
It finishes all square. Toronto FC and New York City FC share the spoils 2-3.
