    I think CCL is more fun to watch when you're a neutral.

    When you're watching your own team play, it's more of a frustration than joy. Because, eventually your team will get CONCACAF'd and your blood pressure go up

    I root for the MLS teams. It is in our interest for MLS to succeed in this tournament.

    Portland getting all the chances they want, but can't finish. And they defend like a CPL team. I'm only saying CPL team, because Marathon beat Forge FC in CONCACAF League to get to CCL

    and a golazo by Valeri on that freekick, even if it hit the post and hit the keeper's back to go in.

    some no name kid GK who is basically an emergency GK had to save Atlanta's ass many times, but this Atlanta team has the similar swagger during Martino days. though it's just one game

    I don't know, they looked kinda old to me

    a) Guzan continues his one gift of a chance a game in one way shape or form streak
    b) their midfield was porous - it was like they had no DM - you shouldn't have people go through you at the top of the penalty area even if down 1 man (well really 2 because Martinez was useless defensively)
    c) Josef Martinez is..tubby


    That's a good result for them, but they got issues

    Anyone catch the new embedded videos on mlssoccer? No volume control. Still, given the commentary sometimes...

    Watching both Atlanta and Portland games with home crowd noises, not the artificial broadcast noise... Yeah, we will also get that, soon I hope.

    I miss being in the stands

    How does Atlanta only have 9 American players out of their 25 player roster? I watch nearly every Atlanta game as I hope to watch them lose. Now down 2-0 !! The night is starting off aces!!

    Jurgen Damn is a faster trickier Shafellburg with somehow less end product. He will dribble to the penalty spot then loop a cross to no one

    edit: 2nd goal chalked off for offside by VAR

    Except now he's suspended for the next game & because of a late goal, they have to go win in Monterey.

    Good luck with that.

    Philly into the semis, deservedly thumping an Atlanta that doesn't know who they are yet under Heinze.

    Possibly the only MLS team in the semis as the other 3 all have hills to climb.
