PBP: 2026 MLS Season Week 12 PBP Thread May 13 - 17 {R}

Here are PRO's Assignments for Matchday 13 (Wednesday matches).
Here are the Player Availability and Disciplinary Summary reports for Matchday 13 (Wednesday matches).
Here are the MLS Game Guides for Matchday 13 (Wednesday matches).

For some reason, at the time of this post the MLS still hasn't updated summary report hasn't the list of yellow card accumulation warnings. Maybe they will. Maybe they won't.

 

For the midweek action (Matchday 13, which happens to fall on May 13th), Atlanta and Toronto are idle.

Here are the series meetings between Wednesday night's opposing teams. I'll do the weekend matches on Thursday.

MLS finally updated the YC Caution list, so we have full reports for today's matches. I think they're lost when the interns are in the middle of finals week.

 

Mostly. They show Rafael Navarro one yellow card from suspension, but the stats only show him with 2 yellow cards this season. However Miguel Navarro, also on the Rapids, has 4 yellow cards this season and would be one card from suspension.

 

They really, really need their interns.

 

Nico puts NYCFC up 1-0 at Charlotte.

 

It's suddenly raining goals.

Some guy named Messi scored
Cincinnati 0-1 Miami

Rios for Montreal and Kelsy for Portland exchanged goals
Montreal 1-1 Portland

Hall brace for RBNY and Arfsten for Columbus exchanged goals
RBNY 2-1 Columbus

Ojeda with a Penalty goal and Dorsey from the run of play for Orlando
Orlando 2-0 Philadelphia

Acosta and Madrigal goals for Nashville
New England 0-2 Nashville

Baribo goal for DC United
DC United 1-0 Chicago

That runs the no nil-nil streak to 27 matches.

 

Montreal-Portland - I gambled on it being fun, and it has been so far. 2-1 Montreal on a Wiki Carmona goal.

 

Giro d'Italia stage 5 on the TV, Minnesota-Colorado on the iPad, lets go!

(Tomorrow's Giro stage goes through the hometown of our beloved Italian Rapids fan, Lino)

 

1-0 Rapids. Rafa Navarro with his 8th of the season, halfway to the team scoring record.

 

My god what was DePaul doing there, literally pulled up a lawn chair and watched Evander waltz in.

 

Im a few minutes behind but ********ing fire that director for DCvCHI. Missed a goal showing a reaction of a PK miss.

 

You know, Turner is having a great year and maybe should start for the US

{Turns on the battle for first in the East, minute 40}

Oh, my. Never mind!

 

The whole slate is a bit nuts right now.

 

Crossbar for Philly.

We need to see Sullivan more - especially if the opponent plays defense like Orlando.
