PBP: 2024 MLS Season PBP Thread Week 25 September 18 - 22 {R}

Freemon usually doesn't hand out that many cards.

 

Miami doesn't know what to do with a ref who doesn't have stars in his eyes.

 

Even Suarez got bitten by the card shark.

 

Campagna

NYC 0-1 Messiami

 

That perhaps wasn't the tightest defense ever.

 

Oh oh, last minute goal

NYC 1-1 Messiami

 

Beauty of a header

 

Twellman's so weird. Mentioned how Sands was so unbelievably wide open like 4 times. But he was marked with a guy contesting (poorly) the header.

 

It wouldn't be an MLS Saturday without a handball / no handball dispute.

 

Charlotte 1-0 New England
Liel Abada 39'

 

Revs defense absolutely shredded

 

NYC did what Notts County couldn't, come back from a 1-0 deficit at home in a game where you've had the most chances.

I'm reliably assured by the people around me, the manager and the homer radio commentators that the late "goal" by Notts shouldn't have been disqualified for offside.

 

Charlotte 2-0 New England
Pep Biel, 65'

 

I see red.
Mustard-and-Ketchup to Borrero in about 10 seconds.

 

A legit yellow for the tackle, then the second for dissent.

 

Second year in a row where the wheels have come off for the Revs….

 

Don't the wheels have to go on before they come off?

 

It's Vegas card dealers with whistles day at the Okey-Dokey Corral. Unofficial rule #1 of every sport: know your referee. No matter what the player thinks, does, or says, they have the whistle. It's never a good plan to make them use it.

 

Charlotte 3-0 New England
Patrick Agyemang, 77', assist by Pep Biel, hockey assist by Djibril Diani

 

Charlotte 4-0 New England.
Comb time
Kerwin Vargas, 88'

 

Charlotte 4-0 New England, FT

 

Hmmm. Now to go shopping for a half match, a whole match, another half match, and then my match to watch. And probably 3 or 4 more confirmations that Audis have adjustable headlights.

 

In a game that really doesn't matter all that much [edit - I stand corrected. That goal puts Montreal in 9th place]:

Montreal 1-0 Chicago

Josef Martinez
