Hypothetically, I would really enjoy a win in this game.

Hypothetically, of course.

Looks like I'll be in Chicago for this one. I'm on a panel at a conference, Saturday, probably out for dinner in the evening, flying home Sunday afternoon. Therefore, I'm hoping for a Sunday evening slot for this one.

 

[Joe_Cos]

It will be interesting to see what MLS/Apple does here. Do they place LAFC Saturday night to get the S. Korea TV market and place Messi against the NFL. Or place Messi on Sat to avoid the NFL.

 

[FootyLovin]

I think this is the most likely lineup.

Alonso
Wolf - Maxi - Nico
Haak - Shore
KOT - Gustavo - Martins - Grey
Freese

Fewest changes. Changes are like for like. Keeps Ojeda and Fernandez in their late game sub roles.

Any info on when they're likely to announce game times?

After the first round ends tomorrow. At the latest it'll be announced Monday.

Feels like this is going to be the Haak-Shore game if NYCFC gets a good result.

Found this in my calendar this morning, for what it's worth.

Has anyone ever been to Philly? I'm probably going to try making the trip if I can get a ticket through the Third Rail.

Been once. The stadium is utilitarian but a good venue. Unfortunately, it is in the middle of nowhere south of Philly. We'll get a warm Philly welcome from the locals.

I can imagine. I know our section is right next to the home supporters which is not very intelligent. I've never done an away game so figure now's as good a time as any.

The supporters section is separated from the visitors section. They are not connected.

You get a great view of the bridge when turning around in the visitor's section.

The fact that it won’t be during the spring/summer when gnats are swarming there is a win.
Stadium is fine, crap location (only nice thing is I have friends who live in Swarthmore so I go there before the game), and parking is a confusing mess.

It's more or less RBA one state further away.

 

[Revfugee]

It's more or less RBA one state further away.

The only time I went was the 21 playoff match so I love the place. Easy to drive to and in my experience much parking is far easier in/out than RBA.

Can’t go this time. A little bummed about that.

Brother in law is a union season ticket holder, he heard it will be Friday night.

It is not in Philadelphia.
It is in Chester PA and yet somehow the “not in Philly” has never taken hold.

The league has already determined that it will be on Saturday, November 22 or Sunday, November 23.

Would be a nightmare to have to drive through rush hour New York and Philadelphia to get there. It better not be.
