2017 Matchday #10: DC United v Union, May 13, 2017 p/d/p (R)

Let's see if they can play like bastards for once.

 

Continuing a long-standing Union tradition started by Seitz and followed up MacMath, M'Bolhi, McCarthy, etc.

 

It's always like that, we're just relying on it way too much tonight.

 

I think the scariest thing is that even down two goals and down a man, a team like DC United still probably feels confident this is an eminently winnable match.

 

You havent watched enough DC United games.

 

Well how many Union games have you watched?

 

Pretty much all of them.

 

don't hurt me Seba, I still <3 you.

 

We almost had a group hug moment there!

 

FAFA!

 

That was gorgeous Fafa

 

3-0 as Picault goes top shelf. Medunjanin with a goal and two assists tonight.

 

3-0

 

I'll allow it.

 

Herbers goes top shelf corner 4-0.

 

4-0

 

Excellent goals tonight.

 

The f*** is happening?

 

This is incredibly enjoyable. They literally just passed it around for about 5 consecutive minutes of possession like a Sunday at the park...then Herbers got bored and casually knocked it into the top left corner like it's the training field. I've never seen a Union team demoralize another team like they have tonight.

 

I came into this game expecting two teams looking terrible.

I was about half right.

 

Guys, I think I've stepped through a rift into an alternate universe.

 

WIN STREAK!

But seriously, I'd gladly eat some humble pie if Curtin and 'the system ' is vindicated.

 

I know. As always happens, I shit talk a player and they look great. I complained about Keegan not starting...and what happens? Gaddis' out there shaking dude's out of their boots, connecting pinpoint passes, and looking incredibly confident with the ball at his feet.. WTF is going on with this team?

 

WOW ,,, just wow

 

2 straight wins, 3 straight shutouts, undefeated in 4 games - the Union's communication interns have plenty of material for this week.

 

We are still tied for last.
