PBP: MLS 2019 Season Week 12 Game Thread (R)

How is this only week 12? Seems like they've been playing forever.

Thx,

God bless the 8:15 8pm start in Canada. Funny they don’t do that for hockey, still the usual 7-8 after puck drops.

 

how will TFC disappoint me tonight?

 

They're trying hard early.

 

Stieber launched a cannon from midfield, saved for a corner, Stieber takes, it’s headed from mid-box to Ameriakwa who scores, offside. All in the first minute.

 

Nice job by Amerikwa to keep United off the scoreboard early.

 

Who died?

 

DC's chances of scoring with this lineup?

 

Brilliant pass by Osorio to stretch DC United defence to start the counter.

Then the ball ends up at DeLeon's feet.

Sadness happens

 

Blacked-out...like I thought for the DC game. So, watching some US Open Cup. This is the fear of the more recent naming conventions for clubs: I give you the Orange County SC vs. Orange County FC

 

Soon to be OC United.

 

Paperwork done.

Wife blew a vein.

Hospital has fantastic WiFi.

I think we are good to go.

 

Evidently this was due to a storm.

 

No Chara for Portland .... we know how this ends.

 

The 3pm’s always start on the quarter hour.

 

MLS Soccer did indicate the start time was pushed due to a storm cell with lightning that had been in the Toronto area.

 

Nothing happening in Houston except Unkel calling a bunch of fouls.

 

TFC off the post.

 

Toronto did not score

 

United had 11 players in their own box defending and still can't get the ball out of their own half.

 

TFC on the power play

 

I keep screaming at them to ice the damn puck but they just won't listen.

 

Attinella just made two huge saves.
