    I couldn't find it on YouTube either. When I clicked the link you provided in the daily message from my tablet, it immediately sent the stream to my Roku (and TV) without me asking.

    I’m slightly disappointed that Glasgow is at LB.

    Looks like Glasgow is a wingback in a 5-2-3 /3-4-3

    If you’re logged into YouTube, click the link on the phone and go to your History in the TV app. I also couldn’t search and find it but it does show up in your history after clicking on it.

    Nice build up from Oregel to Glasgow with a strong cross and Mueller puts it in the back of the net! 3-2 FIRE

    Is it me, or does Rogers look like

    GAME! FIRE 3 - Galaxy 2

    Of the 11 playing the last 30minGlasgow, and Oregel looked 'in form'...Mueller and Pineda both played decent...the rest looked a bit too much like CFII, but they were playing against LA's XI

    Of the XI, was impressed with Zinck & Mbokazi, most played 'in form'...pleased with Davilla (no weaknss shown)...
    Hugo continues his strange mix of scoring regularly and missing chances he should finish...could/should have had a hattrick!

    Best news, our XI was clearly better than theirs and our depth did ok against their XI.

    Enjoyed watching the match on my iPad. Preseason, limited minutes, not really much to discuss. Nobody really stood out- one way or the other. Looking forward to more matches.
    Update- glad to see Mueller score!

    As mentioned above, I think Mbokazi’s play was notable…in that a) our first look, b) they went at him multiple times and he handled it well.
    The other thing was the 4-2-3-1 really shored up the middle and the connection with the back line…and Zinck looked like the 10 he was playing. LA struggled to break it down!

    BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

    Well, I am at work so I could not stream it anyway.

    Are they playing Chemical Brothers today? :eek:;)
    (They have played Coachella more (5 times) than any other band, according to the always reliable internet).

    No formation reports yet, but based on reporting it sounds like...
    1st half 4-2-3-1
    ...........................Shokalook
    .......MHS............Zinck...........Lod
    .................Saletros......Davilla
    Mueller....Mbokazi....Waterman....Barroso
    ..........................Brady

    2nd half 3-4-3
    .......Mueller........Poreba....Dithejane
    Glasgow.....Pineda.......Oregel.......Dean
    ............Cupps....Elliott....Rogers
    ..........................Cohen

    The front 3 could be multiple combination...just not sure who was put in the middle.
    .......Mueller........Poreba....Dithejane
    .......Dithejane.....Mueller........Poreba
    .......Mueller........Dithejane.....Poreba
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------
    Hlyut subs in for Puso after a 20min run.

    Both teams score, Elliot with a header off a corner, 2-2

    Felt like we had solid field tilt the whole first half, just not making the most of it in the final build up.

    Speaking of solid, good turn out for the Drip!

    I think Zinck had the assist.

    It was Mueller, Zinck with the hockey assist.

    MHS took a knock…would make sense to bring on his sub now
