    The team wearing green and yellow is the away team.
    The homer announcer is now neutral.
    Galaxy have a 25 year-old kid in goal.

    That was a GREAT chip, and an even better save.

    1:30 isn't bad. Enough time to get slaughtered before the match.

    Interesting perspective since they just signed him to a long term contract.

    Wow.

    I'm not going to go so far as to say Judd "has to finish that," but that was about as close to it as it can be.

    I think LA got away with one there.

    Did Portland get new turf this year? Seems to play much more like real grass than I recall. I could be being fooled by apple’s fancy cameras.

    Twellman was scheduled, but he’s definitely not on the broadcast.

    This seems like a harsh card.

    For USMNT fans I sure hope that Balogun's trajectory doesn't follow Tyler Boyd's career path (whose career path followed Kenny Saief's) if he does indeed switch to the US. Not that most of them will remember as they find the next dual national to fawn all over.

    Decided to go to a restaurant/bar instead of watching the match. Good decision.

    During the early part of the season, there should be afternoon matches as an option at least for "northern" teams. Maybe a 3:30/7:30 option.

    Of course according to the league, DC is not a northern team so I wouldn't benefit, but still...

    I forgot this was on and missed the 1st half. From the (lack of) posting here it seems as though I didn't miss much.

    I was CERTAIN the Galaxy was going to score right there.

    Tyler Boyd was never close to what Balogun has already achieved. Not apples to apples. I

    Raising the playoff line or adding relegation...I think you're gonna get more slugfests like this. Both teams going 100%, just kicking the crap out of each other.

    LA tried to not be able to play defense and Portland wouldn't let them.
