MLS Week 25 - 2017

LAG proved last night that even with VAR any team can get completely screwed by MLS refereeing. I usually like to see them lose, but felt bad about the calls against them that cost them the game (maybe).

We need Minnesota and Philadelphia to come up with results today over Chicago and Atlanta.

That's a big ask from Minnesota. I'm also not sure I'd quite put either one of these in the need category. I think we can stay ahead of Chicago even if they beat the worst team in the league at home, and Atlanta can't win all their extra games. But this is one of ATL's few remaining away games so I do put it in the "really want" category.
 
If Minnesota can hold on these are great results for our 2nd seed (no I don't care about Columbus)

Kreis is just so clueless and lost. He's of the belief that the effort put forth by his club is second to none.

If I didn't hate Orlando's fans so much, I'd feel sorry for them for being duped by Kreis the carpetbagger, but that franchise and he are perfect for each other.
His Club may be putting forth the best effort, but Kreis choosing to start Rivas over Larin is ridiculous.

Orlando dominated everything but finishing. 72% possession, better passing, 9 corners to 3, 25 shots to 7, by xGoals they should have won 2-1 at least. Not starting their best finisher is lunacy.

So Toronto gets every call their way - blow on them and it's a foul. And then Bradley tilts his head down to butt a Montreal player and no card - should have been a red.
