PBP: 2026 MLS Season Week 7 PBP Thread April 11 & 12 {R}

Ethan Horvath with two great saves + a goal for Miami on the third attempt, all cancelled out by an offside call. The last 15 of this game really picked up.

 

Not a great day for the men's teams that play in Houston

 

Chicago was chaotic in attack last year, shambolic in defense. Two 1-0 wins in a row suggests a different approach in 2026.

 

Somehow we're up to 30 matches since the last nil-nil. And we've seen nine ten so far today with both teams scoring.

 

The Defenders had their first home game of the UFL season at Audi Field against Houston today. I felt good about this statement.

Disappointing result for Colorado and the DC fans who wanted 50 points.

 

Well it seems highly unlikely that Colorado will play a boring game this year.

 

Wow, San Diego down to 10 within the first minute of the second half. Second yellow to McVey.

 

I lost track of goals. It was not a disappointing result for Colorado.

 

Three goals in stoppage and a couple of saves to boot. Wild throughout.

 

It wasn't my focus, but I had to go back and watch because I was so confused by those final minutes.

 

Legendary MLS DJ, David Guetta, is performing a set at Coachella.

 

Colorado says hi

 

You guys could share your toys with the rest of us during recess, you know.

 

I cant decide whether VAR is pro american because it's instant replay, or anti-american because it reduces the number of goals.

 

He should have played the opening on Inter's stadium last week.
He could have done "I'm In Miami, Bitch".

 

I enjoyed this game's match commentary by Rogandino and Heath Pearce. Pearce remarked that the offense for the 2nd yellow wasn't all that malicious, but it still reflected really poor judgement. Rogandino then mentioned it's San Diego's third straight game with a red card? That's not good -- so either they get a handle on that or they might be in for a long season.

 

San Diego set for a classic 'sophomore slump' kind of season? The West is loaded this year, based on the early season results. San Diego could have a decent season and still finish outside the top 4 in the West.

 

A game is happening.

 

Total goals per week have been increasing five consecutive matchdays. That trend isn't continuing this week. Well, unless Columbus and Orlando find a way to score 16 goals tonight.

 

I missed a goal. O Columbo

 

That looked suspiciously like an Orlando goal.

 

O hio

 

With that goal, the no nil-nil streak is now 31 matches. The last nil-nil was Minnesota v. Seattle on March 22. There have been 6 nil-nils this season, 3 in Week 5.

 

They're still giving Columbus a higher win probability than Orlando despite trailing. That tells you how bad Orlando's record is this season.

 

Uh-oh. Abou Ali is down with a non-contact injury.
