    Game two for Rio Grande Valley on Wednesday was postponed because thunderstorms in Dallas meant Reno's connecting flight would not be in time for Reno to make the game.

    Here are stat comparisons, to date:

    Looking forward to this one despite the 11.30pm kick off time for me in Scotland! Great opportunity to keep the momentum going from the first two games. Been hooked on all things Republic FC for a couple of months now and enjoying my first season as a fan. I would love to see a bigger UK presence so I wrote a blog today explaining what attracted me to explore soccer stateside and why others should follow suit. I hope it might be of interest to some.

    We’ve been getting our stuff pushed in for almost the entire first half.

    Last five minutes was better but that was one woeful half of football.

    Not a classic so far but started to find our feet toward the end of the half, one positive being that without us creating much RGV haven’t capitalised.

    Yep.

    USL is a professional players league with referees working for juice boxes and orange slices.....

    Not sure what the referee saw there, as soft a penalty as you’ll see.

    Badly need a change of tactics, our attacking threat is minimal at best.

    I’m assuming those faint distant screams in the last few minutes belong to you? A few too many poor first touches and failure to win second balls could be the difference between defeat and getting something from this game.

    Slack play gifting possession to RGV for their second, can’t argue with the finish though. At least it seems to have woken us up!

    Unbelievable.

    Sac-Scot, here’s some East Sac beer hall ambiance for you. You ever make it to Sac and i will buy the beer......unless its football season and you’re cheering the Cowboys. Then you are on your own. Cheers! View attachment 123677

    BTW, the man who delivered that ball into the box is a Scotsman - more to love about the Republic.
