PBP: 2026 MLS Season Week 8 PBP Thread April 17 - 19 {R}

Just walked back in from halftime yard work to see Cuypers with that beauty. 3-1 Fire.

 

And Charlotte score with their first.

 

That's what you call quality! Nice strike.

 

Turgeman levels for New England in Foxboro.

 

Espinoza gives Nashville the lead in Atlanta.

Still scoreless in Philadelphia and Orlando.

 

OK, Philadelphia and DC. Every other match has a score. One of you needs to score. If you end up in a nil-nil, you have to buy rounds for the rest of us. Hey, I don't make the rules.

We're either going to have the no nil-nil streak end at 35 or extend to 43. It's all on Philadelphia and DC.

 

The last two seasons, I thought it was Luca Orellano who really opened up the field for the FCC attack, and him being gone to LigaMx emphasizes the good he did here.

 

NYC are being mugged in Queens. 2-0 down

 

...another ********ing boring scoreless tie.

 

The no nil-nil streak ended at 35 matches.

grrrrrr. And that's why we can't have nice things.

 

NYC get one back with a Golazo from Fernandez.

 

Looked like a good crowd at Citi Field on bring a friend for free day. Shame they haven't posted it.

 

Luna presses RSL into the lead, forcing a bad turnover.

And another goal two minutes later and Salt Lake is rolling over SD early (Luna with the assist).

 

RSL off to a fast start. 2-0 over San Diego 5 minutes in.

 

San Diego got those sophomore year MLS blues.

 

Noticed the banner behind the Seattle goal that says: SAVE THE CAPS
Nice gesture by the fans based on the murmurs coming out of BC about the team's future in Vancouver.

 

Great save by SD on the breakaway from Solans. Great through ball from Luna.

 

SDFC are back in it. 2-1

 

Bizarre goal kick: defender took the kick and played it square across the six to the GK, and Luna kind of moved in between them.

The way SD approached it, it looked like something they practiced or planned. But why?

 

Seattle heaps more woe on St. Louis, Misery. Roldan in the 22nd. Well, STL rallied from 1-nil deficits in its last 2 matches. We'll see if they can hit the trifecta.
