Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds Citypark will turn into a battlefield for St. Louis City and FC Cincinnati.
- 4' What a strike from Jared Stroud! The score is 1-0.
- 9' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 14' It looks like no one’s ball. St. Louis City is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 19' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 24' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 24 minutes.
- 27' The referee calls foul for Obinna Nwobodo. He receives a Yellow card.
- 32' The travelling FC Cincinnati supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 37' It looks surprising FC Cincinnati does not make any changes. Santiago Arias has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 39' What a strike from Eduard Lowen! The score is 2-0.
- 43' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Sergio Santos.
- 47' Goal! Kyle Hiebert scores his 4 goal in 112 matches.
- 52' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 53' What a strike from Nicholas Gioacchini! The score is 4-0.
- 57' Goal! Roman Celentano scores his 1 goal in 241 matches.
- 61' Another substitution for St. Louis City to replace Rasmus Alm by Isak Steiner Jensen on 61 minute.
- 63' Goal! Sergio Santos scores his 34 goal in 282 matches.
- 68' 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.
- 73' 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 Matt Miazga suffering a number of foals already.
- 74' Time for substitution for St. Louis City. Indiana Vassilev is replaced by Akil Watts.
- 75' Another substitution for St. Louis City to replace Nicholas Gioacchini by Tomas Ostrak on 75 minute.
- 76' Tomas Ostrak was booked on 76.
- 81' St. Louis City started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 81.
- 86' St. Louis City 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.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for FC Cincinnati.
