    What: DC United @ NYFCF
    Where: Yankee Stadium (ugh, still?)
    When: Sunday, March 10, 3 PM EDT (remember to set your clocks ahead one hour Saturday night/Sunday morning!)
    Why: MLS Regular season, Game 2
    How to watch: FloFC, ESPN+ (if you're out of market)

    Time to see if DC United can carry over their play from the season opener in their first road test of the season on Yankee Stadium's bandbox of a field. Last year, a short handed DC United almost stole all 3 points on a Steve Birnbaum goal, only to see the now departed David Villa get one back late in the game for a 1-1 draw.

    Last week, NYCFC got off to a hot start in Orlando, jumping out to a 2-0 lead, but faltered as the game progressed and settled for a 2-2 draw. We all know how DCU did in the cold rain vs Atlanta's 3-4-3.

    Vamos!

    Can someone with Flo (or an alternate* way of watching) volunteer to post updates in here? It is a PBP thread after all :cool:

    It will be interesting to see how we play on their funky little pitch.

    I'm gonna take a wild stab at
    DCU - 3
    City - 1

    over/under on yellow cards: 3 (I'm taking the over)

    Apparently Reddit is the place to go for online soccer streams these days, but I couldn't tell you exactly which subreddit to go to to find one.

    It used to be r/soccerstreams but it got shutdown a month or so ago.

    Believe they moved to a discord server but not exactly sure how that works.

    With the change in playoff format it would be nice if we could steal some points on the road.

    Tomorrow seems like a prime opportunity to do so.

    DCU have been a bad road team for a long time.

    Yes, I know it's traditionally difficult to win on the road in MLS, but DC's last winning record on the road was in 2007, and the last time they topped 20 points was 2014.

    They need to do much better than their recent average of 2 road wins a season if they really want to compete for top of the East.

    I see Tom Supple is standing by in case a porn flick breaks out at the VAR table. Can't be too prepared.

    Looks like a blackout on DirecTV 471 in the DC area, however the Nets game could be still on YES.

    Thx,

    Seeing a bit of chatter people can’t get Flo working, but seeing it’s working at a couple of the watch party bars.

    Announcers are obsessed with the two touches prior to the shot.
