The pink swamp's hopes lie in the brother of a former yellow clad hero.

 

So who'll work remote from the DORA when it opens at 3:15?

Getting paid to drink beer? Why not? It'll be sunny and highs around 80. It beats some cubicle, does it not?

 

In addition to Pozuelo, it looks like Yedlin might be out as well. He is questionable for tomorrow's game due to injury. Yedlin has been quite good for Miami this year, so this would be a big loss.

DeAndre Yedlin is Questionable for Wednesday’s game at Columbus. The 2nd Captain has appeared in every game, starting all but one, and played almost 2,400 min this year, his most since 2018-19.

Noah Allen and Harvey Neville will travel with the team as options. #InterMiamiCF

I would also expect Higuain to only be available for about 45' at most due to the fact that he played 45' this past Saturday and they have another game this coming Saturday.

Edit: Looks like Higuain is listed as questionable as well.

Phil says Gonzalo Higuain is doubtful for Wednesday at Columbus. He suffered getting studs to the back of his leg just before halftime against Red Bulls and was subbed off at the break. Phil said Saturday he could barely walk in the locker room. #InterMiamiCF

No real excuses for this one with that injury report.

 

Atlanta brought half a team and got a draw.

 

It's shaping up to be a classic MLS trap game. I fully expect an uninspiring first half by both teams and improved play by us in the second half which results in a few missed scoring opportunities before Cucho pulls something ridiculous out of his butt around the 75'. This will be followed by some lazy defensive play resulting in a corner kick around the 88' during which we look completely inept and allow the ball to ping off a few players in the box before some career MLS benchwarming journeyman pokes the ball into the net to bring Miami level.

Throw what you can at Miami to get the win and leap frog them in the standings then rest players versus Chicago in the first half.

 

dang. i'm busy werdnesday.

 

What the absolute ********?

 

After the win in Cincy, you gotta stick with the white....

 

Looked great, played great.

 

Maybe the yellow kits were accidentally bleached.

Would like to see white over black shorts but maybe not in this game.

 

Do that and put Miami in pink shorts. It would work.

 

So we get a poor team that is now even poorer. We have them at home. No Wednesday disadvantage. The danger here, is regardless of what's said out loud, there is a degree of confidence that can diminish intensity. We've seen it. And we will be playing against subs who are playing for their careers. That can be a dangerous formula.

But I'm gonna say the players don't let that happen again and we walk away with this one. Team feeds off of Cucho's leadership and joy!

 

From the Matchday email:

• In celebration of Cucho's catch-and-chug after the FC Cincinnati match, we're offering $5 16oz Miller Lite cans during happy hour and throughout the match in the The Pub, Tipico Sportsbook Biergarten, River Club, and vending.

 

This has to be a win and we should give a lot of starters a rest by subbing them in after half

 

Absolutely brilliant. Too bad it's that swill that they try to pass off as beer.

 

You had me convinced at "uninspiring"!
