Chicago at NYCFC 7 pm Bandbox soccer returns to primetime with a rematch of the worst played game of the season

Portland at LAG 1030 Game of the week in theory

[Detroit_TFC]

Starting to wonder when Portland will get some traction, tough stretch for them (LA - Dallas - SJ).

[OgtheDim]

Jays home opener?

Raptors playing?

PAH

Lets watch Orlando play Philly in front of about 10K.


And...Bendik makes an immediate impact by kicking the ball into an on rushing Sapong - thankfully for him it didn't go into the net.

10k? maybe 5k
when is MLS going to get rid of all these franchises that are turning chivas. crowd at Colorado was awful last week as well. dragging the league down

Keane is out still, so i put KC v Red Bulls as match to watch this week

[OgtheDim]

Philly does fine. Goes between about 13K and 18K usually. Their stadium looks like ours. Most fans on the right end and beneath the cameras.

[OgtheDim]

Hmm....we might just have had goal of the year and save of the year within 5 minutes of each other.

[Hugh Jazz]

Didn't catch much of the 2nd half but Philly won that one in style, great goal, great save right at the end (2-1). Orlando backline made quite a few blunders.

[Yohan]

Philly is somehow 1st in the East. Let that sink in for a moment.

Love parity and this league!

[Auzzy]

Joe Bendik put in a classic Scott Sterling-style save off the face in the 68th minute of the Philly-Orlando game, it's in the highlights...

[Fort York Redcoat]

Philly does fine. Goes between about 13K and 18K usually. Their stadium looks like ours. Most fans on the right end and beneath the cameras.

They had so much potential having an SG before they even had team but it takes dedicated fans to go to chester every week. They will be a team that must perform to see good attendance numbers.

So no Larin at all? i just saw highlights and no lineups.

[OgtheDim]

Larin out with a minor hamstring. Orlando was playing with a false 9 all night. Kaka can't really run at people like Seba so he needs the ball at his feet - wasn't happening much.

[Yohan]

Colorado at RSL 930pm Mountain men game that I don't think I can give a shit about to be honest

Rocky Mountain Cup. Derby game. And RSL is somehow last undefeated team in MLS this season so far

[SoccMan2]

DC United hopefully there attendance picks up once they get their new stadium because right now they are drawing flies, lucky if there is 3000 people at their game versus Vancouver today.

[OgtheDim]

Crowd looks bad in that big stadium in New Jersey.


Montreal has won all 8 games at home since the coaching change. Fortress Cheese Land


Vancouver is just disappointing - hopefully that can stay until after the Voyageurs.

[Hugh Jazz]

Vancouver making it easy for DC to run up the score.

most of the side that the cameras face boycotted the game today, I believe. Could be wrong but I'm fairly sure they scheduled one for this weekend in response to the Ban given to one of their members.

[OgtheDim]

The attendance in New Jersey was supposedly 21406 i.e. 2/3 of capacity. There were a couple of shots from behind the goalie on goal kicks and the stadium on all sides looked more then 1/3 empty.

[CBTFC]

Such a waste of an awesomely fantastic stadium that is Red Bull Arena.

[OgtheDim]

Wondo is being Wondo - guy just knows how to score.

[Yohan]

Wondo is being Wondo - guy just knows how to score.

and to think he didn't start scoring until he was 27 ish

[OgtheDim]

OK, I stand corrected on that RSL/Colorado match. Not well played but the midfields were basically being bypassed for minutes on end.

[Hugh Jazz]

At home and in form RSL only able to breakthrough COL once after a terrible blunder. Anyone who thought we should have got a result against the Rapids while down a man needs to rethink that one.

[Fort York Redcoat]

Stade Saputo game v Columbus didn't show crowd in highlights but the bell echoed louder in there. I'm sure Bekker heard it after his goal. The announcers even made note of how many times turf bounce came into play. Kamara (Kei) duffed at least 3.

[Fort York Redcoat]

DC United hopefully there attendance picks up once they get their new stadium because right now they are drawing flies, lucky if there is 3000 people at their game versus Vancouver today.

DC is in a low spot with no wins this season and their supporters in protest.

Vancouver making it easy for DC to run up the score.

Vancouver continues their slide with Laba out on his red and Tibert with his first game back from injury.

RB is having some bad luck and it continued this game. shots high and wide, a penalty blocked and the injuries meant Ouimette was aside a first timer. Both got beat on that second goal by Dwyer.

Attendance has to be affected by MLB season opener, no? NY likes their basesball.

[Fort York Redcoat]

Courting 4th place all time to take Ante Razov. Amerikwa in on so many highlights...

Nice to see Tesho take the penalty on his first game back.

Very interesting takes on this match. RSL still undefeated, Plata still a hero but got to mention Maund with the save from the line. That should keep him starting for a while. Looks like he was a better keep than Justin Braun. Hindsight 20/20. Granted we didn't have a TFCII for him back then to find his form.

[ag futbol]

I hate to say it but the limp act look like the best team in MLS right now. Forget drogba, they don't even need him.

[Hugh Jazz]

Definitely one of the top teams. They've got enough depth to go far this year.

[molenshtain]

A lot of that has to do with teams refusing to try and give any special attention at all to Piatti. The amount of time and space he was getting on the ball yesterday, and all season, is insane.
