Concacaf set up the bracket a little differently this year. In the past they would seed it so that round two would be all Liga MX vs MLS, which would typically result in three of the four semifinalists being Mexican as well as both finalists. 

Now they have three of the four Mexican teams on one side of the bracket, and three of the four American teams on the other, paving the way for a Mexico-USA Final. They stuck the Canadian teams on Mexico's side as well, so there is one Mexican team that could still win the USA side, and there are two MLS teams that could still win the Mexican side.

The first leg is in the books. 

Technically New England fared the best of the USA teams, since they advance to the quarterfinals due to a forfeiture by the Haitian team. 

NYC was next, with a 2-0 win. 

Seattle played the Honduran team to a 0-0 tie, while Colorado heads into the second leg with a 1-0 loss. 

The two Canadian clubs both suffered a 1-0 first leg loss to a pair of Mexican teams. 

Not the greatest showing for the MLS, but not exactly catastrophic either. 

Second leg this week.

motreal and rapids were both 1-0 away losses, so if they can show up at home they have a decent chance.

do away goals count as tiebreaker in ccl?

  • In the round of 16, quarter-finals and semi-finals, the away goals rule is applied if the aggregate score is tied after the second leg. If still tied, a penalty shoot-out is used to determine the winner (Regulations Article 12.7).
  • In the final, extra time is played if the match is tied after regulation time. If the score is still tied after extra time, a penalty shoot-out is used to determine the winner (Regulations Article 12.8).

How does one player tally three own goals in a half?

https://www.espn.com/soccer/united-states-usaw/story/4598762/what-the-uswnt-learned-from-new-zealand-win-despite-meikayla-moores-3-own-goals?platform=amp

i usually don't feel to bad for players and teams having bad games. it happens to everyone and it's something to learn from.

but this just made me feel really sad for her. especially the taking off at 40 min mark. why not just sub at half and save her the walk of shame?

mls starts saturday. i've tried a couple times before to get into mls. first was with ne revolution, but something just didn't click. second was with atl united, which was fun but i picked up right after the 18 cup win and it just felt like bandwagoning and i didn't stick with it.

gonna give one more try and with another new team. nashville fc. i have family from nashville, so there is at least some connection. they're competitive, but i don't feel like i'm jumping on after they've been a major success. and it's close enough for me to maybe go to a match or 2 if i want. we'll see if i can keep with this one. 

i also follow bham legion in usl, and have from the start. it's been really fun and last season was a blast.

Concacaf Champions League 

MLS and Liga MX each lost one team in the opening round. The MLS took the lone head to head match up between the two leagues, but it was Montreal so that really doesn't help the US. NYC and Seattle obliterated their opponents, and New England got a free pass to the next round. Colorado was the lone blemish for the MLS, losing on penalty kicks to a Guatemalan team; Comunicaciones. Comunicaciones is thus the Cinderella as the lone team outside of MLS and Liga MX to make it out of the first round alive. Next they get MLS Cup Champion NYC. The other three quarterfinal matches are MLS vs Liga MX. 

The Quarterfinals will be March 8-17.

We can friend-a-me's. 
When the Columbus was going through the Save The Crew drama. MLS made three rulings.
1) Austin got a team. Screw Austin.
2) Cincinnati got a team. Screw Cincinnati 
3) Nashville was awarded the use of Yellow as their primary color. Screw Nashville. Columbus is the real yellow soccer team.

I have a lot of fun with MLS, hope you can find enjoyment in it too.

Watched Longhorn baseball win earlier this afternoon, watching Austin FC play right now.  It's 37 degrees and raining outside so it's  a great day to sit on the couch, light a fire, and watch sports all day.

Not only are the Crew undefeated, but they are also winning each game by an average of 4 goals.
