- 5' New York City FC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 10' 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.
- 15' A quiet spell here at BC Place. Vancouver Whitecaps FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 20' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Vancouver Whitecaps FC and New York City FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 22' Andres Jasson is ready to make an impact after coming on for Tayvon Gray at the 22 minute mark.
- 27' 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.
- 32' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 37' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 39' The referee shows Vancouver Whitecaps FC player a Yellow card on 39.
- 44' 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.
- 49' Jamaica international Tayvon Gray has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.

- 62' Florian Jungwirth has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 62.
- 64' The whistle greets Valentin Castellanos as he departs to be replaced by Heber.
- 69' 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 Thomas Hasal suffering a number of foals already.
- 72' Vancouver Whitecaps FC ring the changes. Lucas Cavallini has done his job and it is now time for Javain Brown to step up.
