    perhaps no mckenzie because he’s going to the u20s and won’t get mls minutes until after the tournament?

    No, Elliott seems to have beat him out for a CB spot. I think he's better than Elliott, but he did rotate with Elliott at points last season. Its not that unlikely that Elliott might've had a better preseason, and therefore he's now starting. Elliott also started the most recent preseason game.

    Bradley's goal is a decent shout for Derrick Jones. Brutal ball-watching from Medunjanin, who isn't an ideal fit at the #6.

    I wasn't sure about Aaronson making the 18 consistently, but thats good news. Union doesn't have much offensive depth, so he could get some minutes this season.

    Sands starting is a complete surprise. He was a back up all preseason. They are starting three #6's today, so that might have something to do with it. Will Sands play much when they don't play such a defensive lineup? I didn't even think he'd start the season on the bench though, so I was way off with that. Scally not making the bench is a little surprising. He appears to be the back up RB, but maybe they don't feel the need to have two RB's in the 18, and they think someone else can fill in at RB, if Tinnerholm exits the game.

    x2 for Medunjanin switching off when he was needed to defend in the box...

    Mueller and Acosta have been active, some good moments from them.

    Lewis, aside from his assist, hasn’t gotten on the ball much. He did have 1 or 2 giveaways

    I like what I'm seeing from Sands at the half. He drops into a /center back role while defending and into the DM role when attacking. He's done well to break up play a few times and had some nice passes to push the ball forward. Solid so far.

    To be honest, Lewis has been poor thus far and Acosta has been decent.

    Quite frankly, I am shocked that Duncan is starting this game. He is going to have to play midweek against Santos because Murillo got himself suspended for the game with dumbassery in the first 2 legs. It seemed the time to play Murillo HERE and save Duncan's legs (he is returning from injury and hasn't played a ton) for the game against Santos. I think it is a mistake tactically by Armas, but since he is playing, I hope he plays well.

    Edit: I see now that Murillo IS playing, in addition to Duncan. Quite interesting.

    Not sure if that was Acosta, but Lewis just torched that OCSC defender.

    Parks on for Sands, who hobbled off after banging knees after a nice takeaway from Nani.

    DeJuan Jones and Justin Rennicks on the bench for New England.

    Sean Nealis is also on the bench for NYRB.

    JJ Williams is on the bench for Columbus (listed as Jerome Williams on MLS box score).

    Bassett gets subbed out at the 40th min for tactical purposes with Colorado down a man. Thought he was solid in his minutes.

    It's a strange change because Bassett was not doing it wrong, but apparently the coach will try to pose a more defensive game and keep the result.

    Agree, Colorado was playing well for that stretch after the red. They were playing very well before the red.
