Ricketts was onside, that goal should've stood.
Delgado is onside when Bradley attempts the shot. Then Delgado knocks it on and Ricketts is off, but Sane makes a deliberate attempt to play the ball - Ricketts can't be considered offside after that play by Sane. The linesman raised his flag extremely late and once he did that, I don't think it's reviewable anymore.
Why do we have VAR? Seems pointless to me
Well deserved by Telfer. Happy for him.
Oh my god what a boss celebration by Telfer hahahaha
Great volley by Telfer
Man was I ever wrong about Telfer.
Finally!
Boy I had the TFC of old heebie-jeebies at the end there. We got it done somehow today.
What a night for Telfer.
Glad I don't have to be pissed about the botched offside/VAR garbage.
Telfer MOTM
Telfer is a baller.
Athletic, good crosser, not afraid to run at defenders. What's not to like?
First time we gutted one out this year in league play. Nice.

PHHEEEEEWWW!!!
a HUGE 3points,
Great all round performance by Telfer capped off by a superb goal. We still look extremely shaky at the back at times and we’re not clicking going forward, but tonight I’m just grateful for the win
Onwards & Upwards
Good win and hopefully the beginning of a streak.
MLS really needs to improve its implementation of VAR. It seems really inconsistent and doesn’t fix the errors that it is supposed to correct.
Telfer has arrived. What a game and a clutch finish ...after absolutely beautiful play and set up by Auro. Huge win over a very hot Orlando side. With Alti and Gio we would have won that in a cantor. VAR isn't working.
Van der Viel had another great game so did Mavinga and Zavs. A bit better from Ricketts - hopefully he returns to form soon we need a third option.
Hamilton - I feel bad for him...his confidence seems shot. He didn't look like he is going to do it as a striker in MLS.
See...we get 2 healthy CB's back, Bradley heads up to Midfield and we snag the 3 points.
Make that 2 wins in the past 3 games!
I have really...really had enough of Steven Caldwell. All he could talk about on the Telfer goal was the awful defending - it wasn't awfull defending...it was incredibly good creative play by Vazquez and Auro. No word about the brilliant play by Auro... un-stoppable shot by Telfer.
He was criticizing Vanney for complaining about the wrong offside call. Honestly - I was swearing at the the TV...TSN has got to do better. I'd love for a fellow Scot to be an announcer..but he is on the wrong side.
How many league games have we won with 2 Canadian goal scorers including the game winner? Chapman / Osorio.. Dero + someone? Can't have been many. I like it.
Tefler had a game! But damn already 24 eh?
None the less looks like a good winger add to the team.
Yes, this is key. We couldn't keep going with the lineups we were using and expect to get results.
Also, Telfer looked very confident – hopefully the butterflies of the first few games are behind him now.
Let's keep it going!
EDIT:
I didn't get to see the whole game ... how did Mavinga look by the end? Was he okay or labouring?

Really really nice 30 minutes for Ricketts too. Denied a goal he deserved, and that was an alert dummy and Chapman's shot - it would have been easy to screw that up.
