World Soccer XXX: We Have Men Too!

Hometown Bay Cities FC taking on homecity San Jose Earthquakes. Who to root for?

I mean, the hometown team right?

[Kepler]

Apparently my town has a NISA team playing at the local high school. Go Bay Cities FC!

Which Bay?

There are a lot of Bay Cities.

There are a lot of Bay Cities.

There’s an amateur team still in the draw called Motown FC.

They’re not from Detroit.

Edit: There are some pretty generic team names out there.

Let’s play “which one is the MLS team”:
Inter Miami CF
Miami FC
Miami United FC

(Those are all teams currently in the draw)

Reyna looks like he pulled his hammy today

Toon back on the winning streak!!

Watching El Trafico (LA vs LA) and seeing the reaction to this play has not convinced me that fans and announcers actually know the Laws of the Game.

From Roger Gonzalez on Twitter

Sources tell CBS Sports that USMNT star Gio Reyna has a torn tendon and will likely miss the rest of the European season with Borussia Dortmund

El Trafico

Never fails to make me smile.

Whoever coined this has done more for US soccer than anyone else.

Surprisingly, it was a fan one. It kind of took off from Reddit and Twitter and most everyone involved just collectively decided “well, there won’t be anything better than that”.

The only people I know who don’t like it are the LAFC fan groups, and everyone makes fun of them for it.

Pep Guardiola on NBC after the City-LFC match and Rebecca Lowe told him they were broadcasting to the USA. Pep's immediate reaction: Hey, congratulations on qualifying for the World Cup this time!

Had I known it was in town I'd have gone to visit it.

PRO with an explanation on the call with audio from Referee and VAR.

Broadcast schedule is out for the World Cup.

Most games are on Fox with a few group stage and round of 16 games on FS1. All the US games are on Fox.

All in all it seems Fox got lucky with the schedule. College football will be mostly over by the time the tournament starts and they can work around the NFL Sundays.

Welp, it’s set up for what is the best chance for an MLS team to win the CONCACAF Champions League.

Pumas advanced over Cruz Azul after a 0-0 draw (2-1 on agg.) meaning whoever advances out of Seattle and NYCFC will host the second leg of the final (Seattle leads 3-1 going to New York).

UNAM isn’t the strongest club this season, they sit in 10th in Liga MX, but you still can’t call an MLS team the favorite until they actually win.
