    Default Shitecaps vs Chivas

    Anyone watching this?

    Currenly 1-1 in the 75th. Hassli got sent off for a wreckless tackle. Martin Nash plays appologist in the commentary box.

    Actually, even the Chivas announcers are now giving shit to the Chivas player for diving.

    Chivas look bad considering they're up a man. They're passing is pretty bad, thankfully Vancouver can't finish their chances.

    Yeah that dive was pretty bad. Hassli's tackle was studs up though... not sure how the commentators don't see it.

    haha.. Labrocca's shot gets blocked on an open net.

    That's game. Chivas try one last dive but it ends 1-1

    Hassli might have to think about playing so aggressive in the future. I'm glad he's getting called, maybe the red should have been a yellow but most of the time I see him get away with a lot more than he should.

    i thought the only reason Hassli didn't absolutely nail the Chivas player was because the Chivas player reacted and almost jumped out of the way. If it was someone with worse reactions, the player would have been seriously injured. I mean, Hassli comes in studs up, misses the ball by a mile.... 3rd red card this season for the guy.

    He swung around with his leg, no studs. He also didn't even hit him, so that was a bad call. The guy is too good in this league to be thrown out because he fits an aggressive profile.

    You're right. I'm trying to give the benefit of the doubt here because I know my bias but it really was a brutal challenge. Hearing Martin Nash say over and over again that the ref blew the call had me longing for Dobbs and Forrest.

    Studs were up and pointing towards the shin. Here's the replay

    What is he doing extending his leg up like that? Total goon, he got what he deserved.

    studs were up. he does get a small piece of him, but only because the player jumped quickly. If that was Soolsma or Harden (in other words, someone slow and not nimble) it would have been worse.

    notice too that Hassli never comes even close to the ball.

    Hassli is on the edge of reckless every game.

    Agreed. I don't know what there is to complain about here, that extra little kick at the end was reckless and potentially dangerous.

    Is it a stretch to say that Hassli will not be winning the Fair Play award?

    Fun stat from Benjamin Massey:

    Eric Hassli is averaging 0.573 goals every 90 minutes and 0.430 red cards. #WhitecapsFC

    Labrocca remains a contributor. It's hard not to like him on that otherwise unimpressive team.

    Picks out a nice pass but he put the ball in to the 30th row a few times.

    I think Tchani or Sturgis would be a better DP than we have at this point.

    Him and Gordon up front would out-muscle and out-work any CB pairing in the MLS - and give a run to other CB pairings in some other leagues out there...

    Seeing some of you glorify this guy really makes wonder if I'm on the same page as a lot of supporters. I don't like seeing reckless assholes trying to injure players and then act hard done by when they get sent off. I don't care if its Hassli, Saric or de Jong, they're thugs and that's not what I pay my money to see.

    I don't think anyone likes seeing reckless tackles or attempts to injure another player...

    BUT, walking a fine line between 'physical & clean' to 'dirty' is what makes some players great and playing in England, over a journeyman and playing in North America...

    If Hassli could find that line, that edge where he's just as physical and rugged, but stops getting suspended for reckless tackles, or just stupid shit (taking off his shirt while on a yellow) he'd be a great asset to any team...

    It is interesting that people on here are unanimously saying it was a clear red, but on other sites the opinions are that it was a soft red/harsh.

    You could argue it's his reputation that is earning him these reds, in which case they are still on him. 3 reds is no coincidence. He's not playing smart and it's beginning to cost him more and more.

    I agree 100%. But if that tackle last night is the standard for a red card, well then should lose JDG almost every game. But the difference between them is about a foot
