  • 0' We are underway at BC Place. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 3' Assisted by Sebastian Berhalter with the perfectly-timed delivery and Brian White makes no mistake. 1-0!
  • 8' Vancouver Whitecaps FC are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Portland Timbers's shape.

  • 25' The home supporters are growing impatient. Vancouver Whitecaps FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 30' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Sebastian Berhalter made 284 appearances and scored 14 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 35' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Vancouver Whitecaps FC that had 276 games and scored 424 goals.
  • 39' It’s a booking for Vancouver Whitecaps FC player. Alessandro Schopf gets a card.
  • 43' Jonathan Rodriguez has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 43 minutes.
  • 48' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 53' 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 Cristhian Paredes suffering a number of foals already.
  • 58' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 63' Edier Ocampo is replacing Levonte Johnson for the Vancouver Whitecaps FC side.
  • 68' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 70' Another substitution for Vancouver Whitecaps FC to replace Alessandro Schopf by Stuart Armstrong on 70 minute.
  • 75' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 80' Vancouver Whitecaps FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Deiber Caicedo is hanging Fafa Picault on the field on 80 minute.
  • 83' The whistle greets Jonathan Rodriguez as he departs to be replaced by Eryk Williamson.
  • 88' Portland Timbers are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 90' Time for substitution for Portland Timbers. Santiago Moreno is replaced by Marvin Loria.
  • Game over. The scoreline of 1-1 tells the full story of an entertaining encounter.
