I think of the football cliche that the team seems to play well between the 20 yard lines, but just can't score. Quality finishing is in short supply for St. Louis this year.
They lost at Red Bull Arena 4-0 (no Messi) in a steady downpour. Miami won 6-2 in Ft. Lauderdale a few weeks later after falling behind, 1-0.
That was three points in the bag for Minnesota. Posted. But Cole Bassett both totally blew the passback and then didn't really react to the turnover either. He lollygagged, and you know what that makes him.
Record still intact. The final 5 games have the home teams tied or losing. Pukki just hit the post which would have put Minnesota back in the lead!
What an absolute boner by the Colorado D there. As for the shot, it's not a "gimme," but it's pretty darn close. You would expect that to be scored.
I haven't watched a lot of Minnesota lately, but am I the only one who giggles when I hear the name "Pukki?" Pukki sounds like a pet name a college kid would have for his girlfriend.
