MLS - September 21 - Miami (Home - YS)

[FootyLovin]

Gates are opening early, at noon. Last time we had a sellout type match, can't remember who we played, the lines to get in were ridiculous. Would definitely recommend considering a Clear account as you can more or less skip the lines and just walk in at the stadium store gate. The get-into-stadiums account is free. I have a paid account now but had the free one for years and it worked great for getting into the stadium.

Definitely. I have a free account. Wifey doesn't have one. We were both able to skip the long Legends line on Wednesday and go straight to the front.

Anyone know what time actual kickoff will be?

Should be same as normal, 10 minutes after the hour. 2:10pm kick.

Ah, the only game where I don't have to scroll through the clunky appleTV menus to find it.

 

[moogoo]

Risa still listed as OUT for this game.

Tanis vs Suarez. Who is gonna start a fight first? lol

 

[Cohibax]

I honestly hope the boys come ready to play tomorrow. Too many eyes on game to get battered again.

I really believe they'll be a lot better. The performance on Wednesday really felt like a "looking forward to Saturday" type of game, and I think they'll show up in front of a capacity crowd and an atmosphere unlike anything we've played in front of at home since the inaugural season.

Don’t get embarrassed is all I’m hoping for. That’s where we’re at this point in the season….

Too many friends are coming to the game today so can’t leave in the 30th minute again if they implode haha

 

[FootyLovin]

Good morning.

It is (just another normal) game day.

Bitches.

Giving away a 50/50 scarf?? Dear god today is going to be an absolute circus. This is embarrassing by the team…

I've noticed that Parks in particular plays well in big games. He was excellent against Tigres. After the off-season rumors of him going back to Europe and things falling through, I wondered if he's extra motivated in games where he's likely to get attention from scouts. It also goes the other way when he sometimes looks checked out in smaller regular season MLS games like he's annoyed he's still here.

That actually makes sense when I think about it

This is going to be an absolute circus, but I'm also really excited for it. Could be a once in a lifetime experience to watch the best player to ever do it in a competitive match.

Hope we put forth a representative effort today. Not expecting a win, but also not expecting to get blown out. We're going to be up for it, I'm sure of that.

Hey, there was that one time we beat them as the Washington Generals

And held Messi scoreless.
If we keep him off the board today it’s a win of sorts.

Update: the scarf given to fans is not a half and half scarf. It’s a nice NYCFC summer scarf. Phew.

Still dumb they’re selling half and half scarves though…

I’d say the crowd is 50/50 pink right now so it fits.

Also, don’t know what announced attendance will be but the upper deck is not even 50% full. Lots of empty seats.
