all plays are looked at by VAR. whether or not VAR calls the ref's attention to it or not is a matter of whether the call was a "clear and obvious" mistake. this VAR didn't think it was for whatever reason. we'll never know! unless they start releasing ref conversations after the game.

Would have been very interesting to see who took the PK. On the field (in alphabetical order):
Haak
Maxi
Musu
Ojeda
O'Neil
Perea
Reid
Who's your pick for who would have taken it and who you would have wanted to take it?

Would have taken it - Maxi (while we all watched in terror)
Who I would want to take it - O'Neil (No idea what his PK track record is, but he's just so professional and seems like he'd be the least phased by the moment)
Wildcard Pick - Ojeda (Upside of a possible needed confidence boost if he hits it, but playing with fire if he misses)
Maxi would have taken it.
I would have been fine with Reid or Musu or whoever earned the PK
His jersey had a "Debut" patch on it. Never seen that before.
It's a new thing the league / Fanatics / Topps is doing this season. I've seen it on all the players making their first MLS appearances (even if have played professionally in other leagues).

yea they started this last year. personally i think it looks silly. but whatever.
My own answer to my question. Agree Maxi takes. I'd like to see Reid take. He's a CF. His job is to score. Give him the damn ball.
