Ok, what does this game look like? How does it all go down? RSL probably gets a rotated CBus side that has a game against PTFC the following Saturday followed by another CCC match on Tuesday after. Cucho found himself a seat on in the booth upstairs if he even makes the trip. So maybe they split the difference, however that looks trying to be fresh for the CCC. Curious to see what Pablo does with the lineup. Does Luna see the bench for Barajas? Is Crooks taking too long to get cooking? Or Crooking? It's getting to the point where we should expect some consistent and quality play from RSL but that has never stopped them from stinking up the joint when we get thinking that thought. I think that anything less than 3 points is probably unacceptable espesciall
I think you are getting ahead of yourself. You know this is Columbus, right? Their coach is easily the best in the league and likely won't be there much longer. They are deep and can bring their best players off the bench for this one. Don't get me wrong, RSL is playing like a top 10 team this year, even with all the things we seem to not like. If RSL sleeps on them like they did with the CRapids, they will get their butts handed to them. They can beat a rotated C-Bus team, but they will have to work hard for it. Anyone heard on player availability?

Good hustle from Brody so he could recycle the corner. Amazingly bad kick after that to ensure he didn't recycle the corner.
Amazing play from Gomez to steal that ball, and then a garbage cross. That should have been a goal but wasn't terribly dangerous with the under-hit squared ball.
I’m really hoping we don’t come to regret all these near misses. Gomez causing lots of problems but never quite the precision necessary for the finish.
That was a total circus in the box. Wondering if there is anything for VAR to consider there? Doesn’t seem like it.
Well, damn. The whifff. That cross from Gomez to Chicho would have been a sure thing. But Crooks to Gomez and it's nada.
* Gomez has a chance to make a firm cross for a tap in, doesn't, costs us a goal. * Gomez receives a firm cross from Crooks for a tap in, whiffs, costs us another goal. That's rough.
