PBP: 2022 MLS Season Game Thread Week 24 August 2 - 6

St. Claire just broke out an old school breakdancing move to stop a Colorado break.

 

Another brilliant save by St Claire.

 

20% of Michael Barrios' bodyweight is the mohawk.

 

What a rip by RSL (Ruiz) off the crossbar! Wow!

 

A LAFC goal happened!

I had actually forgotten about their offense since they had barely touched the ball.

 

And Chicho scores again. 1-3. Crazy, as RSL had all the 2nd half chances up to that point.

 

St. Clair is earning his paycheck in the second half.

 

Comparative attacking corps suggests that was a likely outcome.

 

O Loons... dagger!?

 

Zardes with the hattie, off a bad goalkeeping spill.

 

Nine goals this week for the Rapids. Amazing.

 

Every game has goals tonight, except the two I was most invested in.

 

It happened.

 

Well, THAT didn't age well, did it?

 

No. No, it did not.

 

Diego Rubio really has an elevated shithousery game.

 

Zardes nearly with a fourth.

 

What in the world was Jonathan Lewis thinking?!?! Dude!

 

Lewis blows a chance for Colorado as the Loons defenders literally looked at each other with their hands out yelling about who was supposed to cover him.

 

Chielini with the two handed overhead swat to ensure there was no RSL breakaway. Epic.

 

Bunch of blown chances in the last 3 or 4 games, or these scores could be even higher.

 

The Portland-Dallas game needs to put a crawl at the bottom of the screen:

WARNING--viewers of this match are advised NOT to operate heavy equipment at the conclusion of the 90 minutes.

 

Nice save by Yarbrough to keep it a 2-goal game in Colorado.

Ensuing corner produces the goal! 4-3!

 

Seven goals surrendered by Colorado this week. Also amazing.
