Tonights match looks like a huge mountain to climb: ~on the road ~at altitude ~Crapids hot ~huge home attendence ~very thin bench GO REVS---game time
Seven starters out Revs will go back to 4-4-2 Ralston moving to right back Franchino left wing and Baker on right Looks like SN wants to play for a point
CRapids new forwards, Cuban International Delgards looks really dangerous Looks like the CRapids intend to play long balls into his big presence
A good cross from Baker, no one attacking the box Revs conserving energy. 12' Great xounter from the revs with good shot from Noonan forcing save
Rev is "Mr Card" Kevin Terry Pepe fouled in the box--no call Still limping 29' Dempsey makes a GREAT solo run from midfield and gtets off a good shot forcinfg difficult save
Fourth good cross from Baker with Dempsey just missing connecting Revs counter looking Dangerous Revs playing a 4-5-1 with Brilliant dropping back and Franchino playing DMF spot
37' Great counter by Revs Noonan robbed by great save by Cannon 41' Noonan gets free for a shot but misses wide
S-D: Are you and I the only ones not at the OverDraught or fireworks. Ouch. Does anybody want a kitten that practices acupuncture? 45': still 0-0. Rev DFK from 35 yds. Jump, Heaps, jump! Still 0-0. No added time.
Half Time Revs playing well. CRapid attack ineffective--trying long balls instead of build up. I think the 4-5-1 packed formation is really stiffeling the CRapid attacks Defense playing composed tight and well organized Counters have been effective and the Revs have had the far better chances and are unlucky to not be up 1. Hopefully they are conserving their energy.
Halftime feature on "rookies" prominently shows Demps' goal against the MetroScum last week. Ouch! If a thousand monkeys on typewriters will produce a great novel, how many kittens on a keyboard will it take?
Baker is finally starting to show what his prior history suggested he was capable of. At least 5-6 good crosses and with the way Dempsey attacks the box from midfield they are a goal duo waiting to happen
are you hiding catnip in your keyboard!? My cat only comes near the computer to take naps cause it's a source of heat...
Naw. This beastie is simply a poor judge of character. He hasn't gotten the message that I think the only good cat is an outdoor cat. Ouch! Notebook 'puters are a good source of heat, too. Nice save by Reis. And Cila misses off the CK. C'm'on Rev!!!
From the TV: MetroScum on the losing end of a 2-nil score last week. ??? We wish. Reis would have $500 towards drinks otherwise.
MOTM nominee Steve Ralston is one helluva professional. Delgado is a dangerous [drink] player. 59': Rev DFK from 25 yds. Pepe high.
