PBP: MLS 2019 Season Playoffs Conference Championship Round Game Thread [R]

******** no.

 

Referees are Marrufo (West) and Kelly (East).

Best guess for MLS Cup (not confirmed yet):
REF: Chapman
ARs: Dunn/Rockwell
4TH: ????
RAR: Poeschel
VAR: Jurisevic
AVAR: Blanchard

Fourth could be Toledo, I guess.

 

Safe spaces make me want to blow shit up.

Go Sounders.

 

Fourth official is probably Vazquez

Do teams at high altitude usually keep oxygen masks on hand? I wonder if we'll see trainers running out with those for players having trouble with smoke/soot?

The ESPN short "Cliff Diving" that preceded the MLS game was terrific.

 

My kid has the TV, just getting it now. Missed the cliff diving short. Was Bob Bradley cliff diving?

 

That's my problem, I hate both teams.

The Falcon is really cool though.

 

Before The Fall, you are The Stranger to both versions of The Plague. You would wish them A Happy Death, if you were not The Rebel confronted by The Myth of Sisyphus.....

 

LOL. Very good.

 

One thing that will probably always be unique to MLS is how different atmosphere's can be throughout the league. And I'm not talking about packed stadiums vs not so full ones, but how you can have a distinctly central/south american feel in this game and tomorrow it will feel more like a continental European match.

 

Que golazo. 1-0 LAFC.

 

Decent placement.

ATUESTA WITH A BEAUTY! 🎯

1-0 to the hosts.#LAFCvSEA // Audi #MLSCupPlayoffs pic.twitter.com/t8a8WefNI0

Ugh Chivas 3.0 are leading the way against an MLS 2.5 team...

 

This did not start as I had hoped.

 

Oh well. Ball game.

 

1 all. Ruidiaz.

 

Hahahahaha MLS 2.5 lives on!

 

2-1! Lodeiro!
