Not only did Elfath miss a clear red card 5 feet in front of him but as he was waving the player to get up he turned into Lucho and twisted Lucho’s ankle.
God they strike fast. Rojas gets his first MLS goal with a screamer and 2 minutes later Messi gets one of his own. Goal and assist for Messi in 2 minutes to flip this game.
Fresh, Messi splits the defense with another pass and Rojas gets his 2nd. 3-1 in a manner of minutes. Also SJ up 3-0 on LAFC….wut?
Lol glad I didn't watch. Made a nice dinner instead. Glazed carrots, bourbon apple pork chops, and fondant potatoes
Just texted this to OZ, Vela’s 2019 season is considered the best ever by everyone, he had 1.3 goal contributions per match…..Messi currently has 2.65.
RSL just toying with SKC right now. Somehow still 0-0. Salloi is completely broken right now, was in behind but just piddle dicked around till the defense reset and then just shot it straight at the keeper from 20 out. Could of went fast and had a 1v1 or played in Alan but nope.
Some RSL bro just pick Salloi up off the ground into his shoulder then smacked Thommy in the face. Somehow ended up with just a yellow.
Earlier they said KC has dropped 14 points after the 70th minute. Hooray for #15. They also said the second team was at 7.
No matte what Twellman says Griezmann isn’t coming here. They’ll add a couple nice players for fucking Sweden or turkey, they’ll all be 30 year olds, it won’t matter. HOORAY for another first round playoff exit!!!
DirtBall , I think it’s time to say RIP to what was one of the best organic rivalries in MLS history. The piss, vinegar and hatred is gone. Hell, even Russell was out there hugging RSL players after the match.
Once upon a time these teams got into a fist fight over a pre season game. Nielsen is hilarious after a couple beers with these stories. During the infamous preseason street fight he said Rimando started started jogging his direction and quickly detoured to the Gatorade jug so he found little Besler, put him in a headlock and said “ let’s pretend we’re fighting and watch these crazy assholes”. My second fav story was when Beckerman was on 4 yellows and getting ready to leave with the national team. Vermes warned them “he’s going to go hard into a tackle, don’t get baited into a red”. 2 minutes into the game he takes out Dom in an awful challenge and gets his 5th yellow. As Jimmy tells it he says Roger walked over to him and said “We knew that was coming, if you take more than 1 touch the rest of this game, I’m ending your career.” Beckerman passed the ball out of bounds 5 times that match.
You guys needed Ochoa to keep things fresh. He certainly got fans here riled, even now I still hate his guts
Rimando is pretty chill. He’s competitive but just rolls his eyes at the level some players take it to. Beckerman isn’t dumb. He also completely knew what he was doing and that he had earned the warning. He and Espinosa had similar personalities and he knew Roger wasn’t bluffing. The reason that I mentioned players hugging is because from 2010 to 2022 it didn’t happen. They wouldn’t even shake hands. However, after several games it almost came to fisticuffs.
