Events

Match Events

0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Toronto FC and New York City FC get this one started.
5' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
10' Toronto FC currently sit 21 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
15' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
20' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 20 minutes.
25' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
30' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Toronto FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
35' Toronto FC are deployed in a 4-3-3 today, looking to exploit space against New York City FC's 3-4-3 shape.
40' New York City FC is showing some good football. However, New York City FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
45' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
46' Charles Sapong adds to his 0 season tally! Toronto FC lead 1-0 — and this changes everything.
51' Keaton Parks has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 18 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
54' New York City FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
55' Fresh legs for New York City FC! Alfredo Morales comes on to replace Keaton Parks.
60' Santiago Rodriguez is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Toronto FC so far.
65' A meaty challenge results in booking for Richie Laryea on 65.
70' Toronto 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.
71' The referee has no hesitation. Matt Hedges is booked for Toronto FC — Yellow card on 71.
76' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Bob Bradley will be considering his options from the bench.
80' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Sean Johnson.
85' With 0 assists to his name this season, Alfredo Morales is clearly more than just a goal scorer for New York City FC.
90' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering New York City FC that had 289 games and scored 459 goals.
That’s it! Another goalless match for Toronto FC and New York City FC (для сухой ничьи).
