2018 CONCACAF Champions League Thread

Just once I’d like to see someone really lay into one of these diving punks to see what his reaction is.

 

Announcer just said “winner of this match...Chivas” which is patently untrue.

 

Viva la CONCACAF

 

The best moment in MLS history.

 

How do you respect yourself as a player if you go down like that?

 

i have to wonder if seattle hasn't taken a step back this season by not taking a step forward. bruin is a good mls journeyman who's great as a backup center forward but if he's your main guy for the season that's trouble.

they should have dumped dempsey in the off season and signed a young dp attacking mid/winger and the also signed a dp striker moving alonso to a tam player.

an attacking group of dp striker, loderio, vasquez, ydp attacker could be something ... an attacking group of bruin, decrepit dempsey, loderio and vasquez is mediocrity personified.

 

Might have caught a boot down low. If so, we’ll within his rights to draw attention to it. If not, he plants the seed with the ref. Or the ref might think he’s a diving puss. Any way it’s a win/win if he doesn’t get a card.

 

I remember a Panamanian club playing rsl. They gave those guys carrying injured players out the workout of their lives.

 

How in the world was that not a card at all?

 

Isnt that red?

 

When you win, it helps.

 

CONCACAF

 

And Rivera didn’t get a card for a potential red cardable elbow on Loderio a minute later.

 

nil-nil at halftime

 

Seattle is SO predictable. The passes, the movement (such as there is), and the thinking isn't troubling their opposition one bit.

 

It was at that moment, you put some money down on Santa Tecla.

 

Stretchers

 

there's a lot of fans in seattle tonight--at least more than in some of the other games.

 

First half was an absolute mess. Referees had little control and even less respect from the players. Seattle was clearly not having it after that second early yellow.

 

GOL Seattle

1-0 return leg (2-2 agg)

 

Bruin

Seattle leads

 

Bruin scores!

Expect a lot less bullshitting from Tecla unless they also score.

 

Bruin 1-0 2-2 Seattle.

 

There you go, Sounders. Get 5 more.
