5' Los Angeles FC is showing some good football. However, Los Angeles FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
10' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
15' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
20' It looks like no one’s ball. Los Angeles FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
25' Stefan Marinovic has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
30' A quiet spell here at . Los Angeles FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
35' United States international Jordan Harvey has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
40' Marcos Urena, a Costa Rica , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
45' Steven Beitashour has been relatively quiet despite scoring 5 goals in his last 289 appearances.

70' The energy levels are beginning to show. Bob Bradley might look to freshen things up shortly.
75' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Los Angeles FC that had 289 games and scored 582 goals.
80' Vancouver Whitecaps FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 80.
85' 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.
90' Los Angeles FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
0-2 the final result. Vancouver Whitecaps FC will be bitterly disappointed.
