    Nice hustle from Rubin to win that one

    Indeed. That was his goal earned.

    By God we have a legitimate counter attack game.

    Where my Findley jersey at?

    Also a calm, easy rolling ball across the box to Julio.

    It's a hell of a start to Anderson Julio's RSL career, that's for sure.

    Those early Findley games, when he first came from LAG, were revelatory. And you're right, we haven't had anything like it in a long, long time.

    Where’s Albert? Looks like he hasn’t realized the season has started.

    I love Rubio's halftime interview. How to defend the lead? "get a third goal...then a fourth."

    Dunny keeps emphasizing that Anderson Julio replaces Corey Baird on the roster.

    It looks like he's taking his defensive responsibilities seriously.

    Oh, close from Glad.

    We're close to two this half.

    Rubin knows how to pull out of the center to open space to receive the ball and/or bring other runners in.

    I've got the Loons broadcast on ESPN+ and so am not privy to any comments about players warming up etc. If you hear it on the RSL stream, please let me know.

    Julio's playing some nice defense in the middle of the field, there.

    Neither of the subs coming in were mentioned to be warming up.

    Besler sighting! He really disappeared last year.

    And Everton has been a bit frightening in tackles so I don't mind that sub.

    I get nervous every time the Loons send a ball into the box.

    That was a remarkably poor short corner, an especially odd choice since we almost scored on our last corner (the header from Glad).

    That Besler-Martinez-Damir play almost worked.

    So far I’m not a fan of Douglas’ decisions. He’s trying to force his passes inside where possession would be better.

    Ochoa is a pretty bad faker.

    I mean, I am sure that hurt. But he just did the same thing when the Loon pushed him over and stole the ball after the goal.

    Glad was down for awhile. Then Ochoa twice. Maybe not five but in the realm there.
