MLS Cup Playoffs - October 30 - Philadelphia (Away)

MLS guys seem to think cushing did say Maxi is injured and why he came off at the half.

guess we'll find out later this week. hopefully any injuries get worked out by the weekend!

Cushing did basically say that Maxi had a knock. I don't think he said that was why he came off at the half though.

the MLS guys were basically talking about the post game on field interview cushing gave. it seemed like cushing was talking about chanot the entire time, but MLS guys broke that conversation up into chanot and maxi. not really sure what the facts are but i hope whatever is going on with maxi is minor.

hopefully both chanot and talles are available on sunday too, but hamstrings injuries are so unpredictable. it seems unlikely they will be.
 
While I don’t know anything about Maxi being injured, I did see in a post game interview that Cushing took off maxi for tactical reasons. Maybe there is an injury as well, but he definitely wanted to go back to a 3 in the back
 
Club ticket lottery emails going out. No luck here, but there was a form to submit for a spot on a bus.

How do you know if you got it? Is it a "email if yes, ghosted if no"? or do you get a "you didn't make it" email too?
 
I was denied.

If we win, I expect the same problem next week because both the Banc and Q2 are in the 20-22K range. They'll fill that with local supporters, not us.

Last year we had a rather generous allowance in Portland. I think everyone was surprised when those tickets sold as quickly as they did, given Covid was still affecting travel and deciding to travel cross-continent in less than a week is a semi-big deal under any conditions.
If we make it, I think demand will be higher because of the positive word of mouth from all of us who went and a lot of people who didn't go had serious FOMO regrets.

I can't wait to hear our 200 fans outsing/outshine the philly fans during the broadcast - sending our boys energy to not only win this game, but dominate this game and make all the doubters eat their words!

MLS controls ticketing for the final and sets aside a more generous allotment for the away supporters - in Portland it was like 3000 or so. It was easier to get a ticket to the final than to the Philly semifinal last year.

MLS (and really, soccer leagues as a whole) is the only league in North America that allots away supporter tickets for matches, and it’s awesome. MLS certainly has a lot of room for growth, but that sort of experience going to away matches (especially the final of your league) is unparalleled. Hoping we get to do it again in a couple weeks.
