Tuesday night game in late Sept, threat of serious rain, no season tickets to the game, playing non mls competition, in a game we're probably underdogs at home in (i havent seen a betting line but I'd be surprised if we were favored), ya, not surprised its a small crowd. Tho I figured there'd be a few mexican footy fans who showed to inflate the numbers. Hows the game looking? I'm at work, are we really missing Frings?
only 2 mins in .. not much yet

still dumbfounded that sportsnet put some of these games on setanta

I hear ya. Always want my team to dominate at home but Pumas have speed all over the place. We need to focus on keeping our shape or we could be in for some hurt.

looked like the ref didn't like that the under shirt was showing since he had a short sleeve on..

wtf dude we just lost the ball via the ref. Jhonson dribbled by a mexican and
got a foul for it.

again, ghost foul call, lost possesion. Pumas gets a chance

Morgan is the left back of the future, hasn't been beaten all day. Write it down boys Aston Morgan becomes the first TFC academy player to have an undisputed starting job on TFC

I dunno how to express how shocking it was to scroll down this thread for a game update and see "We scored!" "Goaaall!" "Yes yes yes yes!" Im like, flabergasted. fucking awesome! whats possession been like? I pray to god we dont turtle and let them come at us the rest of the game now

^They've had much more of the ball and the play. We had a free kick and worked it beautifully.
Dkolish3
09-27-2011, 07:48 PM
Pumas with most of the possession but by no means embarrassing TFC with their control of the game

In fairness Pumas have rung one off the post and have a couple other chances. But overall TFC is playing with much better shape in this game. Our defenders seems to be much more aware and ready for Pumas speed.
Dkolish3
09-27-2011, 07:52 PM
What do they keep chanting when Kocic kicks a goal kick
Wow. It's like night and day compared to the last time we played Pumas.
They still look very dangerous. 2nd half is really going to test TFC's mettle.
sounds like puta (spelling?)
Great result going into halftime. TFC looks tired out there, I really hope they don't decide to sit on the 1-0 lead the rest of the game. They need to keep attacking!

ArmenJBX
09-27-2011, 08:03 PM

Yup. Looked completely out of it during that last run he made.
Omphroy for Johnson? Johnson doesn't really contribute in the defence and Omphroy is half a right back, half a right winger. Could be a good decision.
TOBOR !
09-27-2011, 08:03 PM
I don't know that we're gonna be able to emerge from this with 3 points if Pumas turns up the dial...
Is Koevermans gassed?
i was thinking johnson is
ensco
09-27-2011, 08:04 PM
So Martina and Sturgis for Koovs and Johnson...?
Yohan
09-27-2011, 08:04 PM
Subs bench is pretty empty for quality
^^
Martina seems a likely choice up front then Sturgis later on if we are still winning to freshen up the legs and close down the midfield.

Seems to be a spark in everyones play tonight.
Have to say one of the best matches I have seen TFC play all season.
And I have seen almost all of them (on TV/computer).

09-27-2011, 08:07 PM
what was wrong with Iro's jersey lol?
From the Laws of the Game under equipment:
The basic compulsory equipment of a player comprises the following
separate items:
• a jersey or shirt with sleeves – if undergarments are worn, the
colour of the sleeve must be the same main colour as the sleeve
of the jersey or shirt.
I always have to laugh when Refs are sticklers for the rules and then you see a ton of ghost fouls.

Well I feel better.
The same idiots that ask our defenders to shoot from midfield are those who are now calling Winter an idiot for his sub.
Now they've scored and it's on Winter? Five men in the back line...3 of which are giants and we get beat on a header in the box?
Embarrassing.

Pumas brought in 2 of their better players at the start of the second half .. it's making them more dangerous in our 3rd and causing our defense to drop really far back

exactly suds.. and to top our defence is not capable of shadowing these
guys in thier own third.. too much space for pumas forwards .
no no no no no
i see we have resorted to "boot it up the field" lol

No Winter...not Sooslma...Johnson! He isn't moving at all! Johnson needed to come off not Soolsma!
It looks like TFC has no hope of scoring. Midfield is not putting together passes. Bringing in Martina is a good idea (yup, we're at that point).
Dkolish3
09-27-2011, 08:28 PM
Martina? Why? Surely we should've subbed a player on who would at least try.
No Winter...not Sooslma...Johnson! He isn't moving at all! Johnson needed to come off not Soolsma!
Think I would have rather seen Johnson go off than Soolsma.
Let's hope it works out.

pumas pushed the nox button.. our defence is looking lost becuase they don't know who to take on.. the reds need to open themselves up and kill pumas speed with ball control but they are taking it to us in this half..
Dkolish3
09-27-2011, 08:30 PM
I think koevs has the experience to know that he might only get one more chance on goal and he will bury it
Koev was subbed off for Henry early in the second half.

Clean up your marking keeper.

Darlofletch
09-28-2011, 12:51 AM
No if Dallas win tomorrow and Pumas beat Tauro at home, we're out, in any scenario
nope. If dallas win tomorrow, theyve got 10, we've got 7. we beat them, we're tied at 10. first tie breaker is head to head (pts, gd, then away goals), so if we win 1-0 it's on to the next tie breaker which is gd in the group as a whole, where we'd be screwed.
but if we beat them by anything other than 1-0 (ie 2-1 is good enough) then we'll win on either h2h gd or h2h away goals.
so it's still very much in our hands. It's unlikely but in our hands.
ensco
09-28-2011, 06:04 AM
^You're right of course. Oops. It's not impossible. More likely than us going into Columbus and scoring four goals there.
