2019 CONCACAF League and 2020 Champions League

2 things. Realistically, San Carlos is going to have to win by 3 goals. And the game is not at Yankee Stadium … its at Red Bull Arena. NYC can score at will against this team. They should have had 5 in the first half alone. I don't see San Carlos coming back from this one.

 

Nouhou needs to get his thumb out of his butt.

 

If San Carlos show up at Yankee Stadium they'll be at a clear disadvantage.

 

Bruh, that's not his style. Something dumb or something brilliant is his game.

 

All right--Ive gotten some deserved stick for forgetting that NYC would play the home game at Red Bull Arena. Chalk it up to pre-season cobwebs. However I am still a little concerned about the comeback possibility even though it may sound a bit unlikely. Strange things have happened in the past in this tourney for MLS clubs....

 

With the notable exception of LAFC, all of the MLS teams have looked competent. I expected Montreal to get destroyed, yet even they came away with a hard fought draw. I am still scratching my head that LAFC traded away its "star" CB right before the game. They couldn't have done that a month earlier and had a replacement for him?

 

But usually against good teams. San Carlos is NOT good.

 

The only MLS team to lose a tie while winning the away leg is Toronto in the 2018 final. Teams winning the first leg by 2+ are 7-0.

If this was a Liga MX team, sure, worry. But San Carlos is definitely worse than New York City, so it would take a massive capitulation to lose this one.

 

Come on ref, that’s a red.

 

"Anywhere in the world, that's a red card."

Not in Concacaf, Tony.

 

Definately a red here

 

And it aint even close. Ridiculous.

 

Those stretcher guys are ready.

 

Seattle looks tired already.

 

Knee injury, concussion, heading to the mines, disaster recovery, whatever. They look ready for anything.

 

Hey look it's Roldan making the wrong decision in attack how weird is that

 

He does a lot of things right, which is why he's one of the first names on the team sheet.

 

Yeah, but I'd rather not acknowledge that and chuckle at his persistent failure in the attacking third instead.

 

And I thought the MLS officials were bad....

 

At least it's not just MLS referees missing clear red cards in CCL games, right?

 

Frei!

Unreal save.

 

Frei with a great one handed save!

 

And now off the post!

Seattle's gotta get their shit together and quick.

 

Seattle under relentless pressure right now---i dont think Seattle can withstand 40 more minutes of this. They have to start possessing the ball.
