That goal was a direct consequence of poor play from the two former Gs. Bad lazy pass by AJ and then an ill-timed tackle attempt by Leo.
Besides being skilled Alessandrini is quicker than anyone else on our team, and it's not close. We really like quickness across the board.
Not sure if Houston is just that bad but, we do look much better tonight... on offense. Regardless, due to FC Dallas' win, we are now officially eliminated from the playoffs.
Arrrrrh! Forgot about this game! But also -- yay? Jona as the 10, Jones as the 8, Zardes as the 2? Winning formula?
That run and pass from Gio is the one of the nicest things I've seen him do in a G's shirt in a looooong time.
Speaking of.... Arellano made the right decision there, IMO, except that he also almost got himself ejected.
