Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds will turn into a battlefield for Portland Timbers and Montreal Impact FC.
- 5' 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.
- 10' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 15' 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 Michael Petrasso suffering a number of foals already.
- 20' Montreal Impact 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.
- 25' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Portland Timbers needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 30' Julio Cascante needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 35' Sebastian Blanco has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 9 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 40' Portland Timbers is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 45' Supporters expect more eagerness from Zarek Valentin, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.

- 60' Portland Timbers started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 60.
- 65' It looks like no one’s ball. Montreal Impact FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 70' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Montreal Impact FC that had 257 games and scored 352 goals.
- 75' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jukka Raitala made 257 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 80' 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.
