Red Bulls in 2019 Concacaf Champions League [R]

I watched on Yahoo as well using Apple TV. Worked great.
Frustrating result. RB can't score in big games.

 

They scored two nice goals. Royer has to finish his chance off the BWP blocked shot. Lade skying his shot too -- well, I guess that one is expected. I'd rather give minutes to kids than Lade/Muyl this season.

 

Yeah, Lade should not be allowed to shoot on goal IMHO. I've seen some god awful misses over the year. I just watched the Real-Ajax match and let's just say that one of Ajax's kids showed what Lade needs to learn... but sadly I think it's too late for Connor to do so. He's a OK as B-team cover I guess. Muyl I'm less certain about, partly because he's had fewer years to prove his ultimate worth. I'm willing to give him more chances than Lade at this point

 

Typical Red Bull in a big game! So sick of the choking and misses. But just saw Man U comeback to win against PSG and RBNY is much closer to Santos, so you never know.

 

You know I was going to say the same exact thing. Actually I was going to be much more obtuse about it so as not incur the wrath of the spoiler police.

 

I agree with this. I’ll also add the Ajax win as well. I’m not sure but does anyone know if, since Murillo is returning to the lineup, can Duncan play instead of Lade? Or is he always on the right? Lade adds nothing to this team other than a body. Obviously would love it if Lawrence came back

 

Very few American teams go to Mexico and have success, but at least there is hope. Creating chances is not the key, finishing them is.

 

Tonight's match is 9:00pm on Sport.Yahoo.com (english) & Galavision (espanol).

Hmm, no-one listed in the "Injury Update" tab. But there must be people still out, right? Shoot, 3 weeks ago we had 4 guys listed with knee injuries: Meara (who was having meniscus surgery), Kemar, Valot & Bezencourt.

Edit at KO: Surprise surprise... both Meara & Valot are on the bench, but not Kemar. And Lade is still in the XI.

 

4' Fernandez makes it 1-0! Great start. And the kid totally justifies his inclusion in the XI.

Edit: Make that 2-0 at 9'!!! Royer. Now the tie begins in earnest.

 

This phucking team is intent on killing me. I swear!!

 

Why not Duncan over Lade btw?

 

Crazy good first 10 mins, then we took our foot off the gas and let them have some chances. Good ones too. Dangerous strategy on our part. We should go for it!

 

Yahoo streaming worked well in fullscreen up until about 40' then it froze, and keeps freezing every time I restart and go into fullscreen, and as soon as the control bar at bottom fades away it freezes. Smallscreen works fine without any hiccups so I'll stick with that for all of 2T I guess.

Anyone else had similar or different results with their yahoo stream?

 

76' and it's now 2-2 on the night. Our defense just wasn't strong enough. And Santos is clearly just a better team than we are. It's all over except the shouting?

Edit: 80' now it's 4-2 and 6-2 on AGG! We really capitulated BIG TIME after a truly stellar start. WTF.

 

BWP went missing again. Him and Kaku keep going missing in big cup ties.

 

No! Why would one ever be OK with a 4-2 loss???

 

Welp, that’s that. BWP choked again in a big spot but will be there during the regular season. That’s his MO. Lade is simply not good enough at this level. Just hustle nothing else. We need a legit 3rd DP that can turn a game. I don’t mind Jorgensen because we need to prepare life without BWP anyway. I don’t think Armas is the right coach but that’s just me. See ya Saturday

 

If they had scored a third, maybe then Armas can substitute appropriately and they at least come a lot closer, but evening the series with 80 minutes to play against a tough opponent was not a recipe for success. I was just listening to the game and it was almost all Santos in the 2nd half. That they ended up conceding four is largely irrelevant to me, once they had conceded one, they were forced to play a much more open game and Santos was bound to score more.

 

I'm generally happy with our wins. Occasionally I'm content with a draw. But i'm never OK with a loss, especially if we leak 4 goals, even if it's at Camp Nou.
