89' - OFFSIDE! The prodigy Carrizo scores from a tight angle past Blake, but it's JUST OFFSIDE! The margins couldn't have been large on that one, but the Union get away scot free! Subaru Park is LOUD! [1-0]

83' - The sub Fernandez leaves Wagner and Makhanya in his dust before chipping a cross into the box that deflects off Mbaizo for a NYCFC corner. Risky business now for the Union... [1-0]

76' - OFFSIDE! Makhanya rises to win a Wagner corner, and Baribo taps home past Freese. However, the offside flag is up instantly, and it looked offside too. The fireworks may have fooled some of the fans. [1-0]

59' - The stadium erupts as Mikael Uhre is subbed off to a standing ovation and leading scorer Tai Baribo comes in. NYCFC make two subs, with Martinez coming off for Agustin Ojeda and Mitja Ilenic coming in for Tayvon Gray. [1-0]
