2016 CCL: MLS vs. LigaMX battle royale

His arm was behind his body

If it hit his arm it is technically a hand ball.

I don't think it was worthy of being called a penalty, but clearly the ref thought otherwise.

Once again an MLS club inches away from multiple goals but still nothing.

No team on planet earth wants to travel over 2,000 miles to play an away cup game in the middle of the week with league action a few days afterwards.

So by both your logic. when we start playing matches on the moon, we can get competitive cup matches every day???

How exactly do you get that out of my comment?

I'm just tired of MLS fans complaining about how CONCACAF Champions League isn't fair to them.

It's equally tough on everyone as far as I'm concerned.

You both prefaced your arguments by saying "no team on planet Earth", so let's play on the moon! Solves both problems.

 

[BossNYC]

Come on, RSL.

 

[Z4CH3B99]

Nick Rimando has been fantastic in this game for RSL. How long can he keep making fantastic saves before his team gives him a little help?

 

[adam]

damn

 

[Z4CH3B99]

Whelp...

 

[adam]

WINGERT TIME????

 

[adam]

Maybe LA will redeem us

Maybe LA will redeem us

With this lineup, they better.

Damn, they're going to be good this year.

 

[OSNY87]

Indeed. That is a scary lineup.

How do they fit all those superstars on one roster with all of the MLS cap rules? Oh yeah, those rules don't apply to the Galaxy.

 

[Z4CH3B99]

Less than a minute into the game and the Galaxy already have a great chance to score. Brilliant save by the Santos keeper to deny Van Damme.

 

[Z4CH3B99]

Zardes and Kennedy are the only Americans on the field for the Galaxy right now.

I think De la Garza is considered a Guam national when it comes to international soccer. I read something about it on Bleacher Report the other week.

Robbie Rogers is American too.

 

[Z4CH3B99]

Robbie Rogers is American too.

Oops, forgot about him.

 

[BossNYC]

Oops, forgot about him.

Z4ch, do you think it's a coincidence that both DC and RSL collapsed after the 70th minute?

 

[BossNYC]

Vandama is a mountain.
