PBP: Austin FC - San Jose Earthquakes (Saturday, 8/6) in-game thread [R]

Bersano looks to be the real deal, BTW.

 

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuccccccccccckkkkkkkkk!!!!!!!!!!!

 

sloppy goal to concede.

 

The keystone cops strike again

 

What a way to end regulation 45. Our D - for Dumpster…

 

Chris Klein as GM = John Fisher as owner.

 

Nice shot by Espinoza!

 

That’s a goal of the week candidate too.

F-word, two or three times.

I expected us to get slagged, so I shouldn’t be pissed, but I am.

 

Looks like we’re heading back to the basement.

 

That's actually the Brazilian pronunciation - something like Nah-ton.

 

We are so frustrating… play some really good attacking football… followed by comically disastrous football.

 

We're the Dumpsters and we're on fire!

 

Offense - good - we could have had a few more.

Defense - very bad. I see why Austin leads the league in scoring - and no one else is close. They just pour in bodies into the box - lots of late runs. You'd better have your stuff together tracking runners, which we don't. If we can win it, even in our defensive final 3rd, there's a chance to launch some quick counters. We've done some of that already, especially to Espinoza.

 

Figured as much. It is also essentially the Hebrew pronunciation.

 

BTW - why the F is Tommy playing defense? He’s the best damn attacking mid we have! Can you imagine he and Monteiro up the gut?

 

Everything good the Quakes actually manage just goes to waste.

 

The University of California didn’t used to count Hebrew as a foreign language, as recently as the 90’s.

 

We’re shit in three or four ways!

 

Perhaps Rodrigues will ‘spring’ TT, but most likely he’ll (TT) just sit on the bench.

 

We're behind again and will very likely lose, but I like the way the team is fighting. We give up awful goals but come back up swinging on the attack. I don't know how much longer we can keep that up having played 3 days ago, and almost all the same guys. We should do a line change at 60' - what do we have to lose?

 

That would be Agapo that might "spring" him, but I think you're right, he'll probably go to the bench.

 

I was hoping Cade and Shea would start at the half. Crazy, eh?

 

The Austin announcers are complimenting the TT/Espinoza combo.

 

Now I heard “Jimmy Ebobissie”

 

This game is about to get out of hand.
