USOC - April 29 - Red Bulls (Away)

Solid game from the ozzies in the middle.

You mean the Didgeri-duo?

Yes they were quite effective.

Is three set piece off a corner goals another historic first for us?

Pretty sure it’s an historic first for any team I’ve ever supported. And I’m old. That’s some Sunday league sh*t.

Historically, that’s the kind of thing that is done TO teams I support not BY teams I support.

What's statistically more unlikely? 3 identical corner goals scored in one game or Ojeda going to his left?

I've been a fan and rooting for him and seeing a lot of progress. For some reason last night his move to the baseline and only ever baseline seemed nearly pathological. I know I'm late to this party mgarbowski. It just seemed even more glaring to me last night.

ETA: I should add, he was still a threat. He earned corners and got a couple of good crosses across goal. In fact I think he accomplished either a corner or a decent cross on nearly every drive. So he's not getting shut down, remarkably. At some point defenses will figure that out. Right?

I've been down on him for a while so it's no surprise I was among the first to notice this negative tendency. It's confirmation bias that in this case turned out to be right.

next year they are eligible i think. Assuming the slots go back to normal. if not then i think they have to finish top half of usl league 1.

Yes, but I doubt they are going to be hiring Gio Savarese to coach, so it won't be the same.

This is the part I noticed. He was able to pull it off and be dangerous nearly every time, even with the defenders knowing that's what he would try to do.
