2016 CCL: MLS vs. LigaMX battle royale

[BossNYC]

Wow, completely against the run of play.

Wow, completely against the run of play.

That's what happens when you fail to convert chances from point blank range.

DCU needs to focus and regroup. They cannot let this get out of hand now.

 

[BossNYC]

DC looks out of gas..

 

[Z4CH3B99]

DC looks out of gas..

That goal really took the wind out of their sails.

 

[BossNYC]

Lol

Lost sound but not the announcers.

Lol

Lost sound but not the announcers.

I guess that's one of the benefits of not traveling with the team.

And that's goal #2... Now it's an uphill battle. So far it looks like LMX 1 - MLS 0

 

[BossNYC]

DC better get a goal now.

 

[BossNYC]

Diving time cuuuz Mexico. Ugh.

 

[Z4CH3B99]

DCU just fell apart in the end. Really disappointing considering how well they played the most of the game.

 

[BossNYC]

Main event coming up.

 

[Z4CH3B99]

There is supposed to be a large contingent of traveling América fans in Seattle tonight.

 

[Z4CH3B99]

Seattle's new turf looks fantastic.

No it doesn't.

 

[adam]

America going for the throat early.

 

[BossNYC]

No it doesn't.

Yeah, looked good from the angle they showed originally but from this angle...yuck.

 

[BossNYC]

Seattle looks like the midseason team.

 

[Z4CH3B99]

Espectacular del portero amercanista!!!

Spectacular save!!!

 

[adam]

This is a wild one

 

[Z4CH3B99]

This game is already better than the undercard and we've only played 20 minutes or so.

 

[Z4CH3B99]

The announcers on Univision said that there are around 20,000 (are there really that many?!) Americanistas in Seattle tonight.

I'm still shocked that CCL games don't get more hype. I'd honestly rather win the CCL than an MLS Cup. A chance to show that not only are you the best team in MLS, but best on the continent. Plus a chance to get one up on Mexico.

I feel like if we fast forward five years, a Sounders - Club America CCL game would be a major, major event.

Mexican fans travel. This is the most non-green I have seen CenturyLink in a while.
