Had Gaven not scored, I would be fuming. That said, after a season lacking offense, FH makes everyone better. Can't wait for Saturday!
I'm still in disbelief. I haven't believed in the team this much since early '09. Horrible ref and we still pull out the W. We just may make the playoffs yet.
Eddie Gaven tells all of us "Rest THIS, motherf***ers." How about that play by Meram on the goal. That took all kinds of stones to recognize where Eddie was and to not panic and go for the sharp-angle shot. Wow. Lampson gets his first MLS win. Made a couple questionable decisions, but came up large a few times. Not a pretty match, but it's three MASSIVE points.
Actually, I think Meram had a shot on goal, it deflected off the keeper and found Gaven. I want to see the replay to be sure, though.
Eddie had to check up too to make sure he was not offside as well. I still can't believe it. Mind you, we still have a lot to work on, but the spirit seems to be getting there.
I would bet on making the playoffs. It will be interesting if we do indeed make the playoffs, because Crew have not fared well in the playoffs... but this team may come into the playoffs in a different situation than we have seen .... they could come in as a hot as **** side at mid-table.
Not to rain on the parade, but it looked like he did shoot and the ball found Gaven off of MacMath. Who ********ing cares though? We win!!
Remaculous! (Sika's term when calling Higuain's goal--half remarkable half miraculous) We're now tied with Montreal for 6th and just 3 points below Houston for 3rd place in the east. I'm really hating these new tiebreaker rules right about now. Its been a while since we were hot going into September. This feels...strange.
To make the night even better, I hope Robert goes out there and gets fined by the league for ripping this refs.
Higuain telling him where to go still made the goal for me. Meram still had a lot to do, but Higuain really does make the players around him better. Exactly as advertised.
He definitely shot it. At first go around, I thought (as KC stated) that Meram passed it.. but after a couple more looks, it was a shot and then subsequent deflection.
