If one watched the Montagua vs. Forge Second Leg match last night on FS2 you would have witnessed quite possibly the worst miss in the history of the tournament as a player from Montagua was literally a foot and a half from the Forge goal line and somehow managed to sky over the crossbar his attempted finish from a delightful cross from the left wing. The ball ended up on top of the net.

Rapids v Comunicaciones was amazing. Red card in the first half. Rapids winner late called back after VAR. Then an epic penalty kicks featuring like 38 missed penalties in a row. (Ok — I exaggerate — but it felt like that.)

Colorado's goalkeeper did all he could to keep the Rapids in the hunt in the PK's. Shame that Colorado couldn't seal the deal in regulation when they were up a man.

not sure I can remember a set of first leg results in CCL QFs better for MLS than this week. The three MLS hosts all took care of business and set themselves up to advance if they can avoid collapse on the road. MTL, playing in Azteca, failed to get a road goal but only conceded one. That is manageable at home. I probably would not make them a favorite but they are in good position. Boa, Gil, Buksa for NER continue to impress the hell out of me. That is one hell of an attacking trio. Buksa is a fantastic MLS center forward. A big banger who has enough skill, pace, tenacity and finishing. It is possible (though I don’t predict it) we could have an all MLS Semi-finals. Just stop and think about that a little bit. I’m guessing we may well get 3 out of 4 semi finalist from MLS. The crazy conspiracy theorist in me wants to think the LMX teams are throwing it so MLS wins a CCL in order to build up MLS rivalry in Mexico before this “leagues cup” monstrosity that is coming next year.
