Also worth noting that the Dynamo got robbed, the disallowed goal absolutely should have stood. But that was an insane match, really fun to watch.

Tomorrow night on ESPN is the triumphant return of the MLS vs Liga MX All-Star Skills Competition! I freaking love this thing. Plus for this year we also get Goalie Wars:

I'm a Dynamo supporter through and through but Austin FC looks like a lot of fun.

NOUHOU SCORES! NOUHOU SCORES!


Ohhhhh I'm so happy. This is the soccer equivalent of when Cullen Gillespia scored in the Gator Bowl. For those who don't understand the cult of NOUHOU, another Sounders fan described as "what if a baby giraffe snorted a line of cocaine and then was released onto a soccer pitch. And then it turned out said coked up baby giraffe is a really good defender(locked down Salah at AFCON) who also likes to sprint upfield and try stupid soccer tricks and score, but instead held the MLS record for shots without a goal. Until tonight!

CHOOOOOCHOOOOOO NOUHOU TRAIIIN

For further context: this was in stoppage time for the win, Chicharito is about 50/50 on PKs, and he's already made on this game. It's beautiful. Also LA might miss the playoffs because of it.

Failed panenkas might be my favorite sub genre of soccer "highlight." And that call was epic.

Wow, I read he'd missed but didn't realize that's what happened. Ouch.

There was also this brutal injury he sustained a few days ago…

Not a Sounders fan but love watching that guy, although that's quite the lane goal to be his first. His first deserved to be something more spectacular.

Oh my God if Emmanuel Reynoso pulled thay crap in a Loons game and smiled afterwards I'd be livid... especially in a playoff hunt.

It would have been hilarious if the ref gave him a yellow for that flop

Yeah even with the goal being pretty lame, I was expecting a full blown crazy celebration, pitch invasions, etc., but he aid on his postgame interview that he didn't want to celebrate since all it did was tie things up. He did have a really really nice assist for the winner, though. I'm assuming after the WC someone in France is gonna give him a nice payday.

Hey everyone, not a regular Soccer board poster. Was wondering if there are any FC Dallas fans here? I noticed they don't have a season thread. I've been a season ticket member since 2019. Team is really looking good this year, but a little sloppy late game and leaving a ton of points behind.

Just got home from the FCD game. Nico has done a phenomenal job in year 1. Started our best 11 tonight. A little disappointed we couldn't get something going sooner, but Minnesota had a disciplined defense who seemed to always be ready. Dallas has a strong squad. We've never lost to Austin. Hopefully that trend continues next Sunday. Things are trending in the right direction and this season is a huge success regardless of what happens in the playoffs.

Yeah please beat Austin

Austin v Dallas is a pretty epic elimination match.

Feels like Austin is due to win one but should be a great game, I'll be there.

Don't think you get to be 'due' when you have no history yet.

Due to win one vs Dallas after a couple previous crazy matches then a few really even ones between these teams this season. Can't help being a new club.

Yea, the games have been pretty great to watch between them so far.
Im sure that crowd is going to be insane Sunday, considering traveling down to attend.

personally, I am concerned about Pomykal's availability

Didn't know he was questionable, that would be a big loss if he's out.

I'm curious to see strategy, last match Gabrielsen did a fantastic job neutralizing Ferreira. Our attack hasn't been totally clicking the past few matches either, although we were also just unlucky vs RSL on several occasions.

So instead of keeping teams home announcers, people who are intimate with the clubs and provide a distinct experience...we're gonna get somethig like 6 national announcers who are bland and dont know anything specific about any club.

I thought the national call was pretty solid.

"A hush. A calm. A breath.......A CHIP AND A WIN!"

Yea the actualy call was fine, I just meant it as a more general thought. The national broadcasters just cant know as much about a team, ever.

Twellman is generally pretty bad.

"so your weren't being honest to begin with?" is always my response to that

I'll reserve judgement till I see the crews...if that's their one job I expect them to be deep in research. Guess we'll see
