Barca demonstrated that even in a sport where most players can't use their hands, you can't play it with both hands wrapped firmly around your neck.

ICYMI. Here comes Atlanta United from the bottom of the standings. Finally learned how to score without Almiron. Keeping the other team from scoring has not been an issue. Set a MLS record last night with their fifth consecutive shutout win. 

And doing it now without Barco who is away at the U-20 World Cup. In his last game before leaving he scored a goal and assisted on the other two goals in a 3-0 shut out of SKC. Earning MLS Player of the Week.

US Open Cup.

The Riverhounds knocked off the Dayton Dutch Lions, and will play their USL brethren, the Indiana Eleven in round 3. Louisville is the only other team from the greater Midwest that will be playing in round 3 at the end of May. 

Only three sub USL teams made it past round 2, and all three will have to knock off a second USL team in round 3 if they hope to make it to round 4, where the MLS teams enter the fray.

Yeah, when I saw the headline I was thinking it was better news than it actually was.  Forgot they weren't planning on doing this til 2026 anyway, and seems like that is still on.

Still terrible by making qualification rounds completely pointless, and reducing the group play phase to weird 3 team groups.

Canadian Championship. 

In round one both armature teams were eliminated, as well as Pacific FC from the Canadian Premier League. The other six CPL teams will play in the three round 2 games in June.

I'm torn on this.  I enjoy the Gold Cup, and like having somewhat meaningful friendlies, but I'm not sure beating up on Canada and Cuba is best for development.  Then again, I'm not sure how good the Euro rosters the send to play us in friendlies are.

The Gold Cup was pretty exciting until they decided to make it every 2 years. Now its just a clown show and glorified friendly tourney.

US Open Cup

The Crew draw Pittsburgh, and Cincy draws Louisville CFC. 



Orange County FC is the Cinderella, as only sub-USL team to make it to the MLS round. They had to knock off two USL teams in order to get here, including the one that resides in Orange County. The play the LA Galaxy.
