Week 23 Thread

[Gene]

NYRB v Montreal kicking off right now over on the MSG Network.

A second match sees Toronto hosting Orlando. No Altidore, No Bradley, No Kaka. woof

 

[Gene]

Toronto goes up 1-0 on a 12' PK by Giovinco.

HALFTIME

NJRB: 0
Montreal: 1 (Oduro 42')

Orlando: 1 (Boden 17')
Toronto: 1

 

[Gene]

Sam does us a favor and knots it at 1-1 (52').

Giovinco nets his second of the match in the 56' to give Toronto a 2-1 lead.

Look like they have a pretty good crowd in Montreal for a Wednesday night and an even better one in Toronto.

 

[Midas Mulligan]

Dax and Ouimette fighting each other. Lovely. Would be nice if they would help us out with a win here.

 

[Gene]

Ciman gets his second Yellow and is booted from the match. You can thank me for that, because I transferred him onto my Fantasy Team this week (you're welcome)

 

[Gene]

Wow. Freakin' Giovinco bags his third of the match (88'). 4-1 Toronto.

 

[NYCFCFan10]

Horrible results for us.

 

[Mikeylito]

Jozy's head is going to explode!
How many goals did Giovinco score tonight? Two? Three?
Never mind. Just saw Gene's comment from earlier.

Two decent crowds for a week night.

 

[BxLio91]

Horrible results for us.

 

[Gotham Gator]

I don't know that those results were so bad. Better for us that Toronto keeps Orlando without points. And, while I was hoping that NJRB would beat Montreal, a tie is not awful.

 

[Z4CH3B99]

We're still within striking range of passing Orlando in the table. They have 3 more points than us, but they've played 1 more game. It wouldn't get us into a playoff game, but it would shut up their ridiculous fans for a while.

 

[MagnusPax]

Did anyone find any pleasure in watching TFC destroy Orlando this week? wow, that was unexpected, even with Kaka being out.

Why would we care about Disney City?

It's not like their's some sort of one sided manufactured rivalry or anything.

I find pleasure intheir suffering.

You fuel the other side of this manufactured rivalry. We must not give them the satisfaction of knowing that some of us hate then because of their dumb fans.

It's more like their loss means the door opens for us to gain ground on playoffs. I could care less about semantics. Let them manufacture whatever they want.

 

[NYCFCFan10]

Yeah but their loss came to Toronto who are like 10 points ahead with 2 games in hand.

There's now a bit of a gap between who's in and who's out. That makes me anxious.

All the clubs who are in right now are all playing pretty well, too.

For sure but we aren't catching Orlando if their winning. We needed Montreal to lose too but I'm not sure we're rooting for RB.
