I'm done thinking about our lackluster performance in Jamaica. Time for some baseless Pre-Match speculation! What: CONCACAF Champion's Cup Quarterfinals, Leg 2 (Series Tied 1-1 Aggregate- NO AWAY GOAL RULE) Who: DC United vs. Harbour View FC When: March 18, 2008, 7:30PM EDT Where: Estadio RFK, Washington, DC TV: FSC, FSE Radio: 1540 AM, 1390 AM, WLXE 1600 AM and 1350 AM (Spanish), WFED 1050 AM (English) Image stolen from a Lowecifer post. This time we had better achieve what it suggests!
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 I'm looking forward to this. Give em hell!
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 Oh, is the away goals rule in effect for the CCC?
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 In the words of DC101 DJ and DC fan Roche: Lets Get This BEEEE-otch Started!
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 No away goal rule, nice catch. That is now reflected above. PK's and overtime instead.
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 Can't wait. I'm skipping work to go to the game
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 I think the match at RFK will decide the series.
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 Assuming you mean "weighted goals" as they're used in UEFA and, I think, CONMEBOL, the answer is no.
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 This doesn't have anything to do with anything, but I don't think CONMEBOL uses the away goal system, either. -- Yes, conceding the late goal wasn't good, but it was still only a draw. United has to win at RFK by a goal to advance. Can't get any simpler than that. -- Any word on Jaime? Hopefully he'll be available on Tuesday.
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 Actually, this is incorrect. CONMEBOL switched to using away goals a few years ago. As an example, Chivas advanced in Copa Sudamericana in 2007 over DCU due to away goals.
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 Well i think i read somehwere that the ref is going to be a mexican??? Hopefully this guy will call the game better than the chumps that were assigned in Jamaica! Im re watching my taped version of the game, jeeeez we should have had soo many nice through balls on the ground and through the air that they terribly called as off SIDES!! DUBYA-TEE-EFF!!! Seriously though, those guys were out to hurt us roughing up niell and gallardo and taking moreno out of the game after that early hard tackle. LETS RIP THEM A NEW A-HOLE BOYS!!!!!!
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 You're right. I had tried to block that result out of my head.
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 Where will Gallardo play in this match?
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 That's the only possible answer I can come up with to that question as well, what do you mean?
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 I think we're gonna put him in goal, just for kicks.
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 Oi, don't get cheeky with me mate, or I will shut your mug myself.
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 HVFC may be missing two players because of visa problems.
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 Well I'm glad that Scarlett will be at RFK!
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 "priceless" i know, i know it's MasterCard...but whatever
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 No Jaime ... He may be out for a few weeks.
Re: Pre-Match Thread:: DC United vs. Harbour View FC: 03.18.08 Source? Goff seems a lot more optimistic (not that he said Moreno would be playing on Tues, but he didn't rule it out either).
