- 5' The referee shows Philadelphia Union player a card on 5.
- 10' It looks surprising Los Angeles Galaxy does not make any changes. Lucas Felipe Calegari has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.

- 20' It’s high time made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.

- 36' Goal! Mikkel Uhre scores his 21 goal in 282 matches.
- 37' Alejandro Bedoya is having his name booked by the referee on 37.
- 42' 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 Gaston Brugman suffering a number of foals already.
- 45' Sensational shot from Olivier Mbaizo. Philadelphia Union is back in the lead.
- 45' Preston Judd was booked on 45.
- 50' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.

- 82' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Douglas Costa made 516 appearances and scored 21 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
