Mpache 672 Posted July 12, 2020 Author Share Posted July 12, 2020 I didn't realize Martinez was out This has to be Ruidiaz' tournament. I just hope he actually runs unlike most of yesterday and the games vs Olimpia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mpache 672 Posted July 12, 2020 Author Share Posted July 12, 2020 Haha that was such bad defending. Valot just ran in from space into space. 1-0 NYRB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mpache 672 Posted July 12, 2020 Author Share Posted July 12, 2020 That Atlanta United defending should be concerning. NYRB dominating in spaces and Atlanta isn't closing down enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eco 3,008 Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Such a waste there. Pity should be just shooting there. Without Barco and Martinez, he is our biggest scoring threat...not Emerson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eco 3,008 Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 0-1 NYRB Not the worst half of football I've seen in this tournament. NY could certainly have another goal (or two), where Atlanta really just had 1 solid chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eco 3,008 Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Castro...again? How can you get two balls that close to goal and miss by 500 meters? Are you sure you're playing the right sport? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deco 39 Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 I’ll tell you one thing: this game has been better to watch than yesterday’s drivel in Seattle. I haven’t felt that level of boredom watching football since France v. Denmark at the last World Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seattle last night disappointed me, especially cos their 3 best (Morris, Ruidiaz and Lodeiro) all seemed out of form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still pretty boring and way too sloppy from both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eco 3,008 Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 RB win 1-0. We always struggle against them so this isn't too much of a surprise. We certainly are going to struggle all year without a striker, and while Jahn is a 'striker', he is from the USL and is known for his height. The loss of Josef was obvious tonight, as he would have likely scored a goal or two. Defense was trash, end of. Bello is good going forward, but as a DB, he's never at the right spot. We didn't play our best team, so that is okay. Pity and Guzan were MOTM. Castro can go back to Argentina after tonight, that was the worst performance I have ever seen in Atlanta. We lost so many players last year that tonight wasn't the worst view of what Atlanta has going for them this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we will usually dominate in possession, but under De Boer we don't normally working it into the box as much as we did under Tata. It appeared obvious tonight that we are missing a striker (Josef), but that is typical De Boer United soccer. Tons of possession, shit in defense, and not a ton of really chances to score.

Mpache 672 Posted July 12, 2020 Author Share Posted July 12, 2020 Looks like one player was tested positive overnight. Thinking this will have to be canned sadly. A lot of countries have managed to cope, but the USA seems to care about standards unlike Brazil and Russia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eco 3,008 Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Wow...Minnesota has been awful, yet the KC GK getting a red card in the 74th minute even though being up 1-0, has turned around. Minnesota scored in the 92nd, and 97th minute to score two goals and win 2-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
